Tobago : here we are...again!

We left Grenada (Prickly Bay) Monday at 5pm:

and arrived in Tobago (Charlotteville) at 11am the next day:

The sail across was quite bumpy and our stomachs had forgotten about sailing in these conditions.

The night was hard for Greg who did most of the sailing.

There was another boat sailing with us …with a guy who was born exactly the same day than Greg. So we kept in touch all night long. It is always nice to have a buddy boat in these conditions.

After a good lunch to restore some strength we all went ashore. The kids were in a rush to go back to the library while we were doing the clearance. In the street, we met a local who recognized Felix and remembered that he was the little one selling drawings in the streets 9 months ago!

Greg will go ashore latter again hoping he’ll be lucky: we came to Tobago to fill up our diesel tank as it is very cheap here (0.30 US cts/liter) but the petrol station had no diesel yesterday.
