Quick hello and some pictures. We're shifting from the Bourge de Saintes over to behind L'Ile a Cabrit to get out of the roll, bounce, twirl, roll, upover and swoop. And then there's the ferry wakes. It's not that bad, but it's blowing like stink, and we're looking forward to a quiet night.

Photos from the last few days, which have included a romping sail over from Guadeloupe proper, and a night out with new friends from Pasha (Lunenburg! Pat and Larry), and Gail and Rick from Virginia (on Vision). Proper blog to follow.

Cactus flowers at the lovely garden at the fort.

Nifty stuff at the museum.

Nurse shark baby, dead one. Every collection needs one of these.

Lobster trap, southern style.

Killer view of the Bourge de Saintes on Terre en Haute.

Note the high-tech cruiser hiking footgear. Repair was effected with a strap from my bikini top.

Fabulous, fabulous beach at Anse de Pompierre. Correct spelling, I'm not sure, but the Captain says yes.

Dinner ashore. Yay.
