Glad you had a good trip...you covered a lot of ground!
Thanks Cam...
Did you manage to weather Ivan in the lagoon? I'm told the major boat devastation was in one of the bays/lagoons on the southern shore around the corner from St Georges. I truly cannot imagine having to go through a hurricane with a boat, in port or out. Our friends keep their boat in Carriacou for the summer/fall season, where the boatyard in Tyrrel Bay does an exemplary job of protecting the boats in the (previously rare) event of a major storm that far south.

Ah... fresh baguettes... I can smell them still. But why, unless you're in the French islands, is it so difficult to find a good cup of coffee down there?
