We arrived in Rodney Bay, St. Lucia on Monday (1/14) after the smoothest, most beautiful Caribbean sail yet.  Hopefully there will be more like this in our future.
 
We will be stationed at the Rodney Bay Marina until all the rally boats (41 boats in all - down from 45) leave next Wednesday (1/23).  The excitement is starting to build as the rally boats continue to arrive in the marina.  We checked in with the World ARC management team today and received our official Round-the-World t-shirts, briefcase, St. Lucia schedule, and rally number banner and World ARC flag to display on the boat.  This round the world thing is starting to feel like it is really going to happen.
 
More later this week after we've had a chance to meet some of the other participants and have completed more of our last preparations.
