| 20th October 2009 Suzanne | Seafaris Powerboat Eco-tour - From: Underwater Sculpture Park Fantastic Pictures Rum Runner they really show the natural environment taking over the statues which is what they were designed to do. We stop at the statues with our guests on a regular basis so it has been enthralling watching them change over time. Just for your own information the man at the desk is called the Lost correspondent and depicts the evolution of news and history in Grenada. You can't really see them now but his desk is inlaid with all sorts of items such as papers and items from the revoultion and more recently some tickets from the Cricket World Cup. He really was the lost correspondent at one point as strong surges picked him up and stuck him under the reef. Luckily the divers from Dive Grenada restored him to his rightful position. Best regards. Suzanne |

| 7th October 2009 Bart | Would elk work? - From: Oil Down: The National Dish of Grenada Looks like a tasty dish. You can't go wrong with okra and sweet potatoes. I wonder what elk, quail, and pheasant would add? Love, Dad |

| 21st September 2009 Bart | Baths - you were there - From: The Baths Jenn, One thing I remember about the baths is the use of or remote control camera while we were cruising on the Big Kahuna. Do you remember how many photos we took because we didn't know if the camera was working? What a riot - some of the photos show me with a stern look pointing the remote at the camera. Not a keeper. Glad you guys are having fun. Love, Dad |

| 5th September 2009 Traveller | Wind - From: Re-Visiting St. Martin Looks like you had a bit of wind in the lagoon from the video. The Jet Blast scene reminds me of a time was driving a baggage conveyor behind a 707 that forgot to light his beacons. No fun. Fair Winds! Traveller |

| 18th August 2009 margie | Don't move - From: Best Beach... Barbuda Hi, Why don't you stay where you are during the hurricane season, the island looks perfect! Keep up the e-mails. |
| 18th August 2009 heather Johnson | seriously - From: Best Beach... Barbuda Seriously, Travis and I also sailed to Barbuda with Don. We believed we were also the only ones there, when lo and behold on our long walk on the beach we ran into an umbrella on the beach and as we got closer we could slowly make out a naked man on top of a naked woman! Yikes!!! Needless to say, we turned around and quickly walked the other way! |
| 5th August 2009 Maritiza | No perripheal vision! - From: Driving in Puerto Rico The sites in P.R. are very beautiful, now you have to really look twice for the drivers, they have a bad habit of cutting people off even in small streets. Worst .than New York drivers, I know I lived there all my life |

| 1st July 2009 Gran | Great Pics and Story - From: Portsmouth So good to hear from you again; it has been quite awhile. That island sounds so beautiful; is it not on the paths of the cruise ships??? We are probably as hot in Denver as you are on the island, but no beautiful water, except the pool, to jump into. Love you |
| 1st July 2009 margie | baskets - From: Portsmouth hi, Things sound good for you.This trip sounds like real education. You have been away so long but I am sure you are forgetting about time.Love to see those baskets.xx M. |

| 17th May 2009 Paul | Tobacco Rum - From: Dominica Part II Too funny - That reminds me of the mentholated bottled water I had in China 10 years ago - yuck! Love your updates! |
| 17th May 2009 Rita | Thank you ! - From: Dominica Part II Dear Jen and Jay, what a great blog of your discoveries in Dominica. I am glad you are enjoying your visit here and telling the world how great it is. Dominica is still relatively undiscovered and unless you experience the adventures yourself it is just too amazing for words (although you have captured the spirt very well). Look forward to reading the rest of your adventures and I hope you have a great time. |
| 30th April 2009 Andrea | Great Blog! - From: French Fishing Villages Your blogs have been so helpful to us as we have been cruising in some of the same waters. I would put in a google search and your blog shows up! Not sure if you have seen it, but there is a facebook for cruisers that is a great place to be able to connect with other cruisers for info or to share info...you should check it out. seaknots.com Thanks again! ;-) Andrea s/v Can Drac |
| 24th March 2009 Bart | Smoking - From: French Fishing Villages Now that fuel is cheap, I am at least glad to see that the sail boat can run on alternate fuel. Love, Dad. |

| 15th March 2009 Don Moore | Buried treasure on Cave Cay - From: Cave Cay My wife and I visited Cave Cay in the summer of '85 or '86 after we earned thirteen sailing trophies in the Abacos to win the overall prize known as the Victor Ludorem Trophy. After venturing to Cave Cay we buried five or six of the silver platters inside some of the smaller but accessable caves with just an inch or two protruding from the sandy floor. We have often wondered in any of these items were found. Don Moore |
| 8th March 2009 myroadtotravel | Love the pics - From: Between the Pitons These are fantastic. would love to publish some of your pics from your trips at my blog http://www.myroadtotravelblog.com Let me know what your think Tim |
| 7th March 2009 ramsuresh | Felicity - From: Divali It' say under one of your pics. that the streets of Chaguanas all lit up with Christmas lights and deyas for Divali. But the village is Felicity and the road is Cacandee Road |
| 6th March 2009 Ali | I love the first photo!! - From: Between the Pitons Completely sums up the joy of snorkelling :) |
| 4th March 2009 Greg and Kris | Banana Plants - From: St. Lucia The plastic bags are partially for pests, but mostly to speed up ripening; faster turnaround makes for a more efficient banana plant. Also, they aren't trees, which my children love to point out to me when I say it wrong. Our public schools are getting more efficient, too, I guess. |
| 22nd February 2009 Bart | - From: Marigot Bay You need to learn the song "Yes, we have no bananas" |
| 22nd February 2009 margie | Fond memories for us - From: Marigot Bay Hi, Glad you finally made it to our wonderful home in St Lucia where we lived for a year.Yes, we had the bananas!Wish you could have gone to our village , Gros Islet where they had the jump-up every Fri and Sat night.Happy sailing! |
| 10th February 2009 Jessica | - From: Great Harbor Cay I have spent a lot of time on Great Harbour as a child and now. My grandparents own a cottage on the island. I noticed that you said you wanted to go back because you really enjoyed the island. I just wanted to give you a few good ideas on what to do. Extremely close to shark creek is a beach that the locals call sand dollar beach. If you go at the perfect time (low tide) you will see more sand dollars and star fish than you have ever seen in your whole entire life. Our families have contests on who can find the largest, smallest, and most sand dollars. All dead of course. Also a great fishing place to go is the pillings. If you are docked in the marina it is extremely easy place to get to, and the only place my grandparents let me and my cousins take the boat alone. If you are going out of the cut and turn your boat to the right, it will be right there. The last place you must go is the blue hole. It is a bit further than the rest of the places and I do not exactly remember how to get there, but any local will know. It is about a 20 minute boat ride from the island and it is a must see. Hope you go back. Enjoy! |
| 9th February 2009 Jerry | Eat the BakeNShark in Colorado! - From: Bake N' Shark You can get a great BakeNShark in Fort Collins, Colorado at Caribbean Food Shack!!! This restaurant is operated by a true Trini, Angela, and she makes the BakeNShark just like in Trini with all the special sauces! Yummy!!! Try it out!! It's in a gas station!! Campus West Shell just on the west side of the Colorado State University Campus. www.2mayto2mato.com check it out! |
| 16th January 2009 gran | GREAT - From: Christmas in Bequia I am so happy that you had a joyous Christmas; not a Colorado Christmas, but spectuacular. Continue having a great time, but come back to us sometime. Love you |
| 13th January 2009 Chris Kaler | A very special place - From: Compass Cay Our family has traveled to Compass Cay several times over the past few years. It's a very special place for us and our friends that have visited with us. The raw beauty of this island experience is hard to describe. You will just have to make your way there and decide for yourself. Prepare to lower your blood presure and feed your soul. |
