Saint Lucia - Jump Up & Marigot Bay

We just loved having a few days in the Marina, without the boat moving and running air-con at night. I also became a girl again with a pedi and hair appointment. The lobster man came one day and Friedl did a deal for 3 cooked lobsters, so I got the job of preparing them. We had one with salad and the other two Andrew did on the BBQ with garlic butter - wow they were so good. Happy hour at the Boardwalk became our regular and we also met so many other new friends. One of the best marinas we have ever visited.

 We decided to stay a week, but then it was Jump Up - a street party in Gros Islet - this we couldn't miss..... It was such a fun night, we met Jean and Aurelia who own Aldourie; the Oyster 545 that was in the yard with Askari; they joined us for the walk down to the party  - what fun for them on the last night of their time in the Caribbean.
