Another beautiful day, a Saturday. That is going to be an important factor in the mood of some people. As usual, Christy and I are up and moving before the kids arise. We head out for the one hour motor sail to Union Island where we will check in to St. Vincent and the Grenadines…

I haven’t mentioned that I left Canada with a slight cold. It waxed and waned while we were sailing and every day I expected it to go away. But it didn’t. From this day on it gradually gets worse. On some mornings I wake up feeling cured, but by 10 or 11 am I’m almost…

Our last day on the island as a family. Today the kids are flying home, we’re staying for another week boat shopping. We have to check out by 11. So we do. Then take a cab to the airport where we pick up the rental car Mom and I have for the next week. Driving…

We’re up and about and checked out with lots of time to spare. We had tried for a quick checkout so we could get to Carriacou today but that couldn’t be done so we’ll just have to grin and bear it. Cabby waits for us at Spice Island Mall but not too happy about the…
