    Hot and sunny, rain storms in the distance, looks like rain as I write this. We’re up early as we plan on meeting the Walking Club at Island View for the Sunday walk. They meet at 8:00 am and we’re on time, about 8 of us. We’re going up the Woburn Road to Welcome Road,…

    Hot, sunny Neither one of us feeling particularly good this morning I gotta tell ya. Musta been the bad water. We do our best to feel normal and get rehydrated as we’re planning on doing the Grenada Hash today. Its a weekly event – the locals organize a run/walk somewhere on the island every Saturday.…

    We have an 8:30 am meeting with George in Mt. Hartman Bay so we dinghy over in perfect conditions. We meet George who’ll give us a mooring ball for US$180 per month plus US$20 for each boat visit. This is a no brainer for us as George is highly reliable and his fee INCLUDES rides…

    Waddya know, hot and sunny! We’re getting short on groceries and need to get a few supplies at Ace and IWW so in the morning we grab the #2 bus which takes us right to the bus terminal (never been there before) through the famous Sendall tunnel under Fort George. Turns out everything you could…

    Hot, sunny and dry again The sun comes out again and it’s time to revisit the world. We dinghy into the market at Clarke’s Court but find it’s closed as the vendors have been blocked in by mudslides. This is the first we learn of the much damage caused by flooding in Grenada on Tuesday.…

    Pours hard like Noah’s days all day It rains and rains and rains today. It was actually good for us, as we caught up on any paperwork needs. I finally got all my answers back to Melani as well as dealing with other items. Nothing to do but stay below – good to know that…

    Mercifully overcast. Our first day back on board Milu without our visitors – time to get back to the job jar. Nothing much to report today, I spent the bulk of it changing the 7 clutch blocks in the cockpit. Not terribly difficult tho it had its moments, just time consuming and a bit dirty.…

    A beautiful day, no trace of the rain from the last few days. It’s the last day for the Beaches ladies in Grenada. I screw up the top up for my phone plan so we have no Internet until we get to LPB. So we can’t communicate with them to see if they want to…

    It’s hot again, rains a fair bit. Our original intention was to take Milu over to the other side of Grenada, moor by Port Louis, then take the ladies to Dragon Bay for underwater sculpture snorkeling via sailboat. That plan died when we couldn’t get Milu’s engine to run. We’re also returning the car today…

    Rains hard most of the morning, eventually turns into a pretty nice day. Small hurricane through the night, even the experienced sailors in the bay will comment about it later. Musta been over 50 kts with a ton of rain. I get up a few times making sure the boat is not dragging/moving and even…
