Today, just a couple days before Christmas, we are tied to a mooring ball in St. Lucia right beside one of the Pitons. The view is breathtaking! Just off the back of the boat, the snorkeling is at its best. Val and I snorkeled along the wall yesterday checking out all kinds of fish. Val is a bit of a fish herself and at this moment, she is back in the water enjoying all there is down there! Lorna and Brian have the mooring ball just behind us. This is truly paradise! We have been enjoying the beef tenderloin that Val and Rick brought us from Canada!
Tomorrow, we'll head back up into the wind toward Rodney Bay. After Val and Rick check back into their hotel tomorrow, we have plans to lay around the pool at Rick and Val's hotel and maybe order a bite to eat. Christmas day, we have reservations at a really nice restaurant right in the Rodney Bay marina overlooking the water and the hundreds of boats tied to docks. Here are a few pictures taken in St. Lucia. I'm picking up a wonderful wifi signal today somewhere out there!!
Merry Christmas to everyone at home and away!
