Day 4 - November 30, 2015

We arrived safely in Bequia last night which gave us a full day onshore.


We did an island tour with Noel in the morning.

Our first stop was Bequia's most famous model ship building shop. It was been in business 50 years.




Then we were off to what remains of Bequia's fort and some stunning views of the island.


Noel explained the history of each stop. (I should have removed the beer bottle trash which was not ours.)



Houses are situated on the hills all over the island.


Then we were off to the boat museum. Bequia has a whaling tradition that continues today. Noel's family has a whaling history, and one of the boats displayed is from his family.



Our final stop was the turtle sanctuary.



Turtles of all ages were there.




We went back to the boat for lunch then went back to town for a walk about, a beer and free WiFi.



We were back onboard for a Captain's cheese party in the late afternoon.


It was also clean linen day, and we discovered towel art.


We decided on a late dinner at Mac's for lobster pizza, the object of this adventure. 


Going around the table from front left, Captain Phillip, Barbara & I, David & Luba, and Clair & Rob, our new found friends from the UK.

And then they arrived. Two was more than enough for the 7 of us.


We were most happy to crawl in bed after a busy day in Paradise.
