Yesterday we arranged with Whitehaven to go for a
walk up to the top of one of the islands in the Tobago Cays, called Petit
Bateau. We radioed them over the VHF to suggest the trip. Apparently
Regina and Kosh Long were also listening in and so they turned up too, which was
great fun.
The view from the top was stunning:

looking South East over the anchorage. Baradal is to the left of the
picture and Petit Tabac is in the distance on the right.
After we climbed to the top, the children built a
camp.

That evening we saw a spectacular sunset. The
colours look unreal on the photo below, but I have not changed it in any
way.

This evening we are in Clifton, Union Island and
plan to arrange customs clearance to leave the Grenadines tomorrow. Our
next stop will be a tiny island called Petit St Vincent, which is part of
Grenada, which is only around half a mile square. It is around 5
miles away.
