To all our friends and family, Merry Christmas all from Dominica!
We are currently moored at Portsmouth, Dominica enjoying a nice calm anchorage.
There has been an unseasonal amount of rain around - usually coming through in squalls. The upsides are good wind, a freshwater wash down for the boat, and beautiful rainbows!
After a day sail from St Pierre, Martinique in reasonably rough conditions (25knots and 2m swells)we were happy to arrive. During the passage we passed another Salina - you can see from the photo what the conditions were like!
On arrival we met our NZ friends: Marina and James from "Happy Cat" and celebrated our arrival with a lobster dinner at a local cafe (life's tough!).
For Christmas Day we're planning more of the same...a swim ... good food and plenty of festive spirit!
Cheers
Dave & Magali
