Countdown

---

We are counting the days until our flight to Grenada and the begin of our cruise. There have already been some changes in our plans. Our sailing buddy Dave will be jumping ship on April 16th as he has Greenpeace business he must tend to. We are hoping that Shauna's friend, Tyler, will be joining us in St. Lucia on the 14th to enjoy some snorkelling in the shadow of the Pitons and then head up to Marigot Bay, the end point of our cruise. Then we are off to Coconut Bay Resort for a few days of all-inclusive laying about in the sun and eating meals not cooked in a galley. Harald and I went over the maps and put together a general plan of the stops we want to make on the cruise. Then we figured out the timing (sailing, limin', snorkeling, exploring) and I distinctly felt the time (18 days) compress themselves.
