Dominica inland tour















Today our mood for Dominica changed. After succesfully clearing in, we had a nice island tour with Hayden Luke, a Taxidriver and Guide. He knew a lot about the islands history and plants.

Our trip went from a botanical garden to the rain forest and the sulfur springs. On the way Hayden showed us wild lemon grass and ginger, coffee, bread fruit and many more plants.

Trafalgar falls was also worth having a look and on the way we found a television with an empty rum bottle right next to the street. An open air TV cinema? ;-)

Dinner was at a chinese restaurant and was good.

Sailing for Jesus Christ

Image
Today the ELIDA V was in the marina. She is 40m long and the mast is 45m high!!! She is built from composite and weighs only 95 tons. With a sail area of more than 800squaremeters she can do 20knots. COOL STUFF The boat is holding groups of young people who believe in Jesus Christ but it does not matter to which church they belong. Typically up to 40 young people are guests and the crew is around 12 to 16 people. The boat is very spartanic inside but built very safe and fast. The big Harken winches are operated by grinders and even the anchor is pulled up with them. This is the meeting room below. It can also be used for company sails. Maybe one day we will have our management meeting there. Here you can see Colin from Californa. He showed us around on the boat. Under http://www2.elida.se/default.asp?id=53 you can read more about this fabolous boat. Roger at the steering wheel. Almost as tall as he is :-) Check my big shoe size 47 against the winches and the traveler :-)
