Il est 07:38 et il commence à faire chaud.....rien à se plaindre, la température est revenue à la normale, le mauvais temps, vent et pluie sont maintenant chose du passé. Il faut dire que les bateaux on dansé la Lambada plus d'une fois dans les dernières semaine, les défenses ont bien joué leur rôle.
Mais le retour du beau temps nous redonne le goût de
bouger.
Depuis le dernier blog, les journées se ressemblent, petit café matinal, jasing avec les voisins. Petite promenade à la minuscule boulangerie du coin, épicerie et bien sur Island Water World pour des cossins de bateau.
Nous avons eu un souper de départ jeudi dernier à Whisper Cove marina, plusieurs bateaux prenaient le large et étions incertain de les revoir. Mais la température les a retenus jusqu'au dimanche matin. Ils sont maintenant à Carriacou, St-Lucie, Martinique à la rencontre de parents et ami(e) pour une vacance.
Le 13 janvier au matin nous avons eu la visite de Méridien V qui venait à la rencontre et voulait serrer la pince de l'équipage de Harmonie qui arrivait d'une traversée des Canaries à Grenade, 2,700 milles nautiques (5,400 km), 22 jours de navigation continue, quel épopée!!!!!
La venue de Méridien V a créer un comité d'accueil Québécois pour Harmonie Un équipage de 5 qui étaient bien contents de toucher terre et bien heureux du comité d'accueil.

Hugues a commandé des langoustes pour le souper du 15, à l'arrivé du marchand de langoustes, d'autres bateaux ont fait l'achat de langoustes. C'est alors qu'un souper communautaire s'est rapidement organisé, langoustes grillé, riz pilaf, salade César, salade verte et dattes grillées au fromage bleu......
Après un très courte discussion avec ma soeur Micheline, elle a décidé de venir nous voir plus tôt cette année, elle arrive le 19 janvier vers 15:35, nous irons la chercher à l'aéroport et partirons pour Carriacou le lendemain ou le jour après, dépendant de la météo. Nous avons bien hâte de la voir.
D'ici là, la vie continue au soleil de Grenada, quelques emplettes à faire, du courrier à poster, un brin de ménage. Ce soir c'est jeudi, nous irons peut-être à Whisper Cove Marina pour manger du poulet BBQ, dernière fois, enfin on pense....c'est la dernière fois depuis plusieurs fois....looool.
Bonne journée à tous, profitez du weekend qui s'en vient et bon repos.

Good morning
It is 7:38 ET it getting hot ..... nothing to complain about, the temperature returns to normal, the weather, wind and rain are now a thing of the past. It must be said that the boats we danced the Lambada more than once in the last week, fenders have played their role well.
But the return of warm weather gives us a taste for moving.
Since the last blog, the days are alike, small morning coffee, talking with neighbors. Short walk to the tiny corner bakery, grocery store and of course for Island Water World boat stuff.
We had dinner last Thursday at Whisper Cove Marina, several boats were taking off and we were unsure to see them again. But the temperature was stalled them until Sunday morning. They are now in Carriacou, St Lucia, Martinique to meet relatives and friends coming on board for a vacation.
On January 13, in the morning we had a visit from Meridian V who came to the meeting of the Harmony crew who arrived from the Canary Islands, 2,700 nautical miles (5,400 km), 22 days of continuous navigation, how epic!!
The arrival Meridian V create a welcoming committee for Quebec Harmony, a crew of 5 who were glad to touch the ground and happy of the greeting committee.

Hughes ordered lobster for dinner on the 15th, when the merchant's lobsters, other boats have been buying lobsters. Then a community dinner was quickly organized, grilled lobster, rice pilaf, Caesar salad, green salad and roasted dates with blue cheese ......
After a short discussion with my sister Micheline, she decided to come see us earlier this year, she will arrive 19 January to 15:35, we will go pick her up at the airport and leave for the next Carriacou or the day after , depending on the weather. We look forward to seeing her.
In the meantime, life goes under the sun Grenada, some shopping to do, post office run, a bit of housekeeping. Tonight is Thursday, we will perhaps Whisper Cove Marina to eat BBQ chicken last time, then we think .... this is the last time for several times .... looool.
Good day everyone, enjoy the weekend coming up and good rest
