Hi Everyone.

We are really enjoying Les Saintes. Yesterday we went hiking twice-once before and once after lunch. The second hike was more of a walk exploring a tiny island about a 3 minute dinghy ride away. The island has a very old fort at the top and is inhabited by goats and a small kitten we came across. We saw a stand where they sold clay pots for 10 euros but no one was there. We will head there tonight or tomorrow to anchor, BBQ, and enjoy our Sunday.

We ran into friends from Finland we first met in St. Maartin, then bumped into again in St. Barths, and now found once again at anchor here. They invited us over to their boat for a drink and after learning that they were out of coal for their BBQ we invited them back to ours for a BBQ. It was a fun night!

Today is like Christmas for Walid. The town is filled with moped rentals. Walid found and reserved an MP3 for today. The MP3 is like a Moped but instead of one wheel in the front it has two. We are going to tour the island, have a picnic lunch on the beach, and check out some more hiking.
