The Saintes 1


Les Saintes are really nice. Thanks also to Erika and Norman from "Norm the storm" since they have suggested staying here for a while. The Mairie is responsible for clearing in. You fill out a form and they fax it to Guadeloupe and around 10 minutes later you get your clearance. Quick and friendly and they even spoke english!

Funnily we also met some dutch sailors with a girl (4 years) who know the waterman catamaran owners which we met in Teneriffe. The sailing community is really small!

Here they have a nice protected anchorage and even a small pedestrian area with beautful shops and nice restaurants.

Only around 20m from the dinghy dock a beverage shop with rum and all other drinks. Good for provisioning.

The Dinghy docks are good we walked around twice today in this lovely town.

They even sell very good selfmade icecream and many cats and dogs roam around. We even saw two roosters and of course Lani wanted to "play" with all those animals.

Whats the plan?

Many people ask me what is on the agenda next? Well, LinoCat will be shipped back on board of a freighter to Palma de Mallorca and from there it will be sailed to Portimao in Portugal most likely. When ? Good question the freighter left Florida a little late and has already been postponed a few days. The current plan is to fly to Germany this week. From the 1st of August i will be working again! YEAH! No kidding. Then we will see... What will happen with this blog? I don´t know yet, for the time beeing i will continue it and then maybe use it as a daily update for what is going on. Or it might rest until our trip continues? Who knows....
