We left Clifton as planned first thing in the morning and
sailed south to Grenada. The weather looked quite stormy when we left but we
managed to dodge most of the rain showers and actually the trip was not at all
rough, which was great for Oliver. He managed to sleep for over two hours during
the only significant inter island passage when there was a bit of swell and
waves so he avoided being sick. It wa sgood to see Grenada again seven years
after our last boat was written off in the hurricane here. It looks like there
has been a lot of regeneration. We arrived at the brand new Port Louis marina in
the capital St George’s and of course spent over an hour dealing with customs
and immigration. It is very quiet in the marina and was nice to sleep soundly
with no worries about anchors and no rolling or wind and wave noise. There is a
road fairly close but that was no problem – possibly because we were all a bit
tired by now. We plan to stay in the marina for a while now and have a relaxing
break. |
