Carriacou over the transom

We sailed over to Carriacou (Tyrrel Bay) on 10/15/09, stayed two days (no pictures, other then us leaving) then continued to Petite St. Vincent.

We have to go back to Carriacou (Hillsborough) today to check out of Grenada then we go to Union Island (Clifton) to check into the 'Grenadines' - Grenada and Carriacou are not part of the 'Grenadines'....go figure....

Avocados

The avocados here look WAY different than the ones we get in the states. Imagine my surprise when I opened one and saw that he ‘nut’ took up 2/3’s of the space. But, the guacamole was yummy anyhow, just a bit less than expected.

Makes our boat look like the dinghy

Here is another picture of the Titanic with Silhouette next to it….makes Silhouette look like a dinghy. We are fueling up for the trip north.

Clark's Court Marina

At Clarks Court Marina these nice folks ran the bar and did most of the cooking over the last year…they are fellow cruisers and are planning on taking off in a few weeks. Thanks to Cheryl and Renee’ for making our stay most pleasant.

Rogers Beach Bar

This is a poor photo but the only one I have of ‘Rogers’ the local beach bar. It was so close while we were anchored at Hog Island we could swim ashore and grab a beer….but we usually took the dinghy.

Wheat weevils = RESERVATIONS

Meanwhile on Saturday night I was horrified to discover that my dinner plan (lasagna rollups) was ruined but some little buggies. All the pasta aboard the boat was infested with wheat weevils – drat! So we had ‘reservations’ instead at La Phare Blu Restaurant.

I was told that the way to prevent this in the future is to freeze all pasta, flour etc before storing it. So, I guess I need to keep some room in the freezer for ‘bug’ prevention.

Even the skeleton looks big

We took the dinghy to the local fishing dock in lower Woburn and got help. Here is the skeleton remains which were cut up and are in the freezer to be made into seafood stock.
