Week 7 and 8 - Caribbean here we come

Finally we arrived Caribbean. Sitting in the cockpit, getting a massage of Emil and Anna, full of pizza on Emils 7 years birthday! Its great to be barefoot againg. Except from the moscitoes everything is about perfect.


Our first day ended up with a Pinacolada in the local bar! :-) No umbrella, but never mind! :-)

Massage time - Emil and Anna - just like they do in Thailand

Snorkling around for fishes and crabs - Aina enjoying the sun and sea

Anna a bit stressed, she felt into the water today. It wasn't funny at all..... in the beginning! :-)

Nelson Dockyard - were we are staying - the boat to the left on the right picture


Today we took the bus to the capital of Antiqua - St. John. Back to last century! :-) Aina outside a rastafari shop! High "buffalo-soldier" factor! :-) Emil is shopping sand toys!

On a local market in St. John

OMG - Telephones in rows! :-)
St. Nicolas Cathedral in the capital, closed for renovation.
Its amazing, we are sitting here in the cockpit at "Torhild" updating the blog on wireless net. Its dark around 18:30 - so we go to bed quite early! Which means we we are awake with the birds! :-) I wonder how this will turn out when we come home! :-) Hope its not that warm tonight, and not that much mosquitos. As you can see - same problems as you have at home! hihi - About 30 degree and 28 in the sea! Everyone are enjoying. Unfortunately we are stuck here in Nelson Dockyard because something is wrong with the boat, but we hope they will fix it within Friday, so we can continue our journey. In the meantime we are exploring Antiqua and hopefully Barbuda within some days! :-) Its good to be ineffective once in a while! :-)

Mosquitoes? A good thing your father hardly notice them. Tell him he can come to our cabin in Evje and visit us again now that he clearly must be cured from his fear of getting stung ;-) Have a great time honey bunny & Co!

Haave familien er ikke misunnelig. I det hele tatt. Nei, ganske bestemt ikke i det hele tatt. Helt sikkert. Vi har ikke mygg. Det høres helt pyton ut der borte i Karibien. Her er det sol og silkeføre. Åh som vi har lengtet etter en vinter med masse snø. Helt sikkert. Det gjør ingenting at vi egentlig skulle begynne å grave opp hagen om halvannen uke. Det er så koselig med snø atte.
