Bequia

Well, just after we posted that it was too windy to sail and we would be sitting tight in Carricou (Grenada), we listened to Denis give the morning weather. He suggested that it might be a bit too much wind to sail, but it would get worse and we might be stuck for a week or more. Our goal is to get to St. Lucia where my sister Lorna and her husband Brian are waiting with their own boat, and my sister Val (and Rick) are flying down for Christmas. We cleared out of Grenada, put up the sails and bounced along for 6 hours until we made it into Bequia. The wind is strong, strong, strong here this morning. We'll wait here until we hear of fair weather and will make the 13 hour run up to Rodney Bay, St. Lucia. So, for now, we'll go in and clear into St. Vincent and the Grenadines, tie down our hats and wander around this beautiful spot!
