Hello evryone
the problem ISSS, that I download all my phottos on the board computer and NOT on this one
So if by chance we have internet and I should be able to update this voyage blog, the photoos are
still on the boat!!!!!,,,,,
And this background color is not easy either,, 
anyhow we have sailed back from martinique to st.lucia, and have now arrived in marigot bay,
which used to be a mosquito heaven but things have changed apparently,,,
now it is super yachts and fancy waterside bars like this one that even has internet and rumpunch as 
access code, without the straw that is!!
we will stay here for Xmas because I was even able to withdraw east caribean dollars , so I can pay
for my drink and maybe more!
so over the next day while sipping on another drink, I will be able to show you some pictures!!
sorry if my writing is not perfect, I cannot see the pink colored letters,
Bye4now

Island of parties and disco's, lots of tourist that want 2 have
a glimps of that sensation!
Not a superbe bay but close to commodities, and after the wind
