Now at anchor in Portsmouth. We passed 'Tiger Frightner' coming northbound, a slight cockup in the communications department! Anyway, as we anchored a heroic figure came surging through the briny briny sea to say hello.....Pepe from Beez Neez. We;'re waiting for Aldabaran 2 to arrive, maybe tomorrow? We rented a car with them for a day in Rouseau. Dominica is a land of waterfalls, long hikes through the forest and friendly people. Should be here for a couple of days, then up to the Saintes before heading south. The only fly in the ointment is that my DVD camera has gone 'missing'. Last seen on the boat in Les trois Islets. Nothing else missing but the conclusion is a light -fingered French person now possesses a DVD camera. Bugger.
Anyway, the 'hot pipes' were pleasant, as was the waterfall. Even the hike was good exercise [ a two hour 'scramble']. Helen's knees have forgiven her!
