Back to Saint Lucia for New Years

Apparently this was the best weather window to return to Saint Lucia for the next week. With company coming on the 7th we took the advice. It was a wonder full beam reach with just two reefs in the main and our smallish jib we still averaged seven knots and kept all the water on the outside! We left St. Anne Martinique at 8:30 and dropped the anchor in Rodney at 12:30. What a perfect day. Now we are all set to take in the fireworks. ( if we can stay awake). Last night they had fireworks at St. Anne but after our four hour hike with Dawn and Laurie we were in bed by 8:30 and all the booming and banging was not enough to wake us until the finale. Apparently the walk had the same effect on Dawn and Laurie.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
