Trinidad & Tobago

May 20 to June 15, 2005

   

 

It was an overnighter between Union Island (Grenadines) and Tobago.  An amazingly easy trip, we did it in one tack, and we had the company of two pods of dolphins!

 

We think this is Parlatouvier Bay.  From this bar at the top of the hill we got a perfect view of the bay and our boat.

 

Charlotteville, Tobago; our first stop.

 

We caught 8 of these little tunas over 2 days.  For some, we steamed them and made a lemon dill sauce.  They were excellent eating!

 

A clean galley, an unusual sight!  The juice jug in the window served as one of our rain water catchers.

 

Check out the turpentine container!  I don't think our government would allow such packaging!  Apparently children are easy to make around here!

 

Jungle Johnson showed us around and didn't want anything for it.   We stopped at a beach bar and treated him to a beer.

 

This is a school in Tobago.  What a playground!  I couldn't imagine teaching in the heat and the humidity.

 

We couldn't resist walking up to another falls to cool off in.

 

This cutie had no problem reaching the leaves on the upper branches.

 

"I'll sing you a song, you pay me money and I'll go and buy rum."...and that's just what happened.

 

Ahhhh...another perfect sunset!

 

The wildlife on Tobago was much richer than on the other islands.

 

The dog days of summer never end...
Mike Campbell's boat.  Check out Dyna, his trusty dog and burglar alarm!

 

It was a sad day when Cat Tales was removed from the water to wait out the hurricane season.  We'll be back in October.
