Bequia week endeth and off to AntiguaOct. 25, 2007

Well, what a great time we had.   Bequia is a beautiful place to visit and the launch week for Tradewinds was a lot of fun.   the launch party ended around midnight last night and we were up at 0330 to catch a fast launch to St Vincent,  a plane to Barbados and then another plane up to Antigua.  We arrived in Jolly Harbour at around lunch time and as I write this,  Barbara is curled up on the couch (yes, these catamarans have couches - ish)  asleep.   It is hot but we have air conditioning (on a yacht?   yes!) as well.   I have to take a shower and then we are off to get some groceries and then a few beers and a meal.

The boat we are on this week is called Justine (last week it was 'Restless Spirit).

We sail on Saturday for a cruise around the Antigua sailing and diving grounds, where Barbara and I are there to watch and learn what goes on while entertaining the guests onboard..   There is a good routine to the way things are run and it is up to us to learn the ropes.  We have a week ashore as well, next,  in the BVI, after which we are not sure where we will be going.  A mystery................................
