Antigua 17°00.19N, 61°45.7W

We arrived in Antigua last night, having sailed in from Montserrat. We're anchored off Nelson's Dockyard in English Harbour. It's a beautiful spot: the old buildings have been restored, and there are flowers and vines growing over them. It's 29C and the Trades have moderated for a few days, so it's balmy and relaxed. Ya mon! We plan to head to Guadeloupe tomorrow, and I guess we'll have Christmas there.

Have a wonderful Christmas!

I took the top photo into our stainless dorade; this is the anchorage in Antigua. The bottom one is our early departure from Montserrat. We had to leave early as we missed immigration, and they charge and extortionate fee during weekends -- they kind of plan it so you end up paying it. I hope there's not a Montserattian warship after us.
