Grenadines Sailing Trip In July of 2004, Roxie and I spent a week on a sailboat with my father and his friends, touring the Grenadine islands in our own back yard. It was the first time that my Dad or Pam had met Roxie, and it was a great week. Larry Stroup chartered a 55 foot sailboat from Moorings in Canouan, and they sailed up to Mustique to pick up Roxie and I. We stopped in Bequia, Canouan, Mayreau, Union and the Tobago Cays. It was not only a great time for everyone to get to know Roxie, but also for me to see the Grenadines from a tourist's perspective. Of all the highlights, perhaps the greatest was eating Bushman's stewed conch on a deserted Tobago Cays beach at night. |
