Leeward Islands 4...
St Kitts is the only island where we spent the entire day on land...touring the island. The tour guide we hired was very proud of his country and took us on a whirlwind tour which included historical sites, a botanical garden, unique geological formations, and lunch at an old sugar plantation...
Many photos I took from the van window...
Windmill remains...
Colorful houses...
The roadside stand where I bought a CD of a local reggae singer...Masud Sadiki...By the end of the week we were all in love with his music...
Masud Sadiki
Caribelle Batik factory and botanical gardens...
Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park...
Black Rocks...Hardened lava formations...
Lunch at Ottley's Plantation...
...and another beautiful sunset...

Leeward Islands 3...
The long sail from St Barts to St Kitts...
took most of the next day...
but when the motor is off and you are completely under wind power it is quiet and peaceful and relaxing...
...looking down...
..looking up...
looking right...St Eustacious...
looking left...Basseterre, St Kitts...
...where we ate our french bread from St Barts...
and docked for the night...
...within walking distance of town...and dinner...
