The last morning in Woburn bay
walking up the hill to buy some groceries before leaving just to get an idea how the houses look like and here suddenly the “Quality Car Wash” a star apple, looks beautiful when cut, the taste looked more promising than it actually was…but maybe I cut it too early
Our first day in Halifax Harbour, very relaxing
the beginning of a birthday table and a happy birthday girl the little islet in the bay, there is a bar/restaurant, but we saw it only once open; it looked as if it was booked for a party Carina the beautiful vessel of our Canadian friends and some pics of beautiful birthday sunsets even an ugly fishing boat can look amazing in the sunset the colours are sometimes incredible beautiful
Some impressions from the bay
el capitano and his rib the other side of the little island including the view of the bar ooopsi I found my favourite German chips somewhere in the boat; a late birthday present yammmiiiiii and tarte au citron; our favourite cake ; I could not bake it for my birthday as it was not possible to find any lemon at this time🤷♀️; but a week later we found some a little fish some birds resting after their hunt for fish an old wreck same here trying to catch the three boats of us, Malok, Altimate and Carina James is visiting Anna and Nick on Malok those little fish jumped into the dinghy; we managed to get them all out alive and put them back in the water These guys all jumped in the dinghy
The last days in Halifax bay
a 5 mile ride with the dinghy to St George’s the mouthful just before the tunnel it’s a pretty narrow tunnel, fortunately it’s a one way street walking back to the dinghy on Port Hwy typical Canadian Easter cookies, called butter tarts; Shell made some and shared some with us my trial of preparing sea-moss; we found it everywhere on the market and I wanted to try it, it’s supposed to be very healthy our yearly and easterly “Hefezopf” a swim in the sunset locals preparing the beach for easter these girls were enjoying the easter weekend in “our” bay and I guess El Capitano was enjoying to watch them 😁
Next anchorage Ronde island, only for two nights
The three boats all left Halifax bay Easter Monday to sail to Ronde island. Malok stayed only one night at Ronde island and then went on directly to Tyrell bay/ Carriacou. After two nights Carina also headed to Tyrell bay while we decided to try the shallow anchorage at Saline island. Just a few miles east of the very south end of Carriacou.
Grenada west coast close to Dothan bay just passing Gouyave just a few miles before Ronde island just before the anchorage, some small islands I think the “little sisters” Ronde island anchorage Malok at sunset I prepared the sea moss and read that is good for your skin, mixed with kurkuma… a trip with the dinghi with James El Capitano and Shell the four of us challenging our dinghi Altimate alone in the big ocean our destination riding from one end to the other and finally approaching the little sisters with a lot of bird pooh which was easier to catch the birds kept hiding or flying away and finally we managed to take a pic of a turtle, yessssss Carina leaving the anchorage very early in the morning
Saline Island, crystal clear water in a small and very shallow anchorage
the water is soooo beautiful and snorkeling so much fun everywhere goats and sheep, only one goat to see the other were hiding the evidence only 1,8 meter depth
A short trip to the neighbour island called White island
overwhelmed with excitement of the beauty of the reef, El capitano was even willing to pose 😁 it’s not that easy write letters in the sand but after some attempts I was fast enough the west side in the background Carriacou the east side of the island in the back again Carriacou in the left the end of Saline island and back to our anchorage
Tyrell bay
On the way to Tyrell bay we found Fuchur, the dragon from “The never ending story” sheeps everywhere the bay with a lot of boats the french frog bar with good food ash windows ash everywhere from the volcano eruption on St. Vincent main island around 100km away
