We are anchored in front of the little town Clifton on Union Island. Everybody has Easter holiday at the moment and are partying with loud reggae music on the streets. From everywhere are coming strange cigarette smells and the Rastafarians are happy. Its a very special place. In St. Vincent (what they call their mainland) you can only walk up to the Volcano with a guide, because of all the armed guards who are protecting their marihuana fields. If you hike the wrong path it could be that they shoot you. The government gave up burning their fields, the reason why we couldn´t find out.
At the moment its raining and cloudy and we are waiting for better weather to get to the Tobago Cays, one of the most beautiful spots in the Grenadines. An anchorage enclosed by coral reefs.
Yesterday Emma took me to see the famous nurse shark in a pool by the Anchorage Yacht Club in Clifton. We looked everywhere in the pool to find them, but also here the Hurricane Ivan changed a little bit. He blew a hole in the concrete wall of the pool and let them all free in the open ocean....
