We remain safe and sound in Grenada. After 4 nights in Prickly Bay, we moved to cleaner waters in True Blue Bay right next door. We were a little grossed out swimming in Prickly, but it was fun to see…
Landfall
We anchored at sunrise and were immediately greeted by a sea turtle. Can’t beat that! I couldn’t bring myself to say this at any point during the passage, but it was such a smooth, easy, pleasant passage – I was…
