We ended up having a lovely visit from my sister Kate – once we were secure to the dock having dealt with her injury and then our silly mistakes with water in the sail locker – though the thing she wished for most, swimming in the Caribbean ended up being elusive since her stitches were only finally removed on the last day of her vacation. Next time Kate…

We managed to make a visit to the Pitons – very impressive – and to St. Pierre, and we made a couple of stops at a super beach – very relaxing! We had a nice stroll through a formal garden – somewhat too staged for our taste – though the canopy walkway was fun and then we did a more authentic rain forest walk…

St. Pierre Anchorage and Volcanic Ruins…

Amazingly, her route home proved easier than the flights here, in spite of there being an extra flight in there. Confirmation has been received – she arrived!
