Christmas in SVG (St. Vincent and the Grenadines)
Monday 17 th January, Admiralty Bay, Bequia, SVG. Ooooh, it's a cosy rainy day here in Bequia, we're being blasted by a squall just now. Lovely. Gráinne's got a bit salty and could do with a good fresh water rinse. Well we've just had a fantastic Christmas/New Year here in SVG (the main criteria being Karl and I together in the same country, and no-one's in quarantine, and no one's dead, and Karl's not in Grenada!), we are in complete holiday mode and have been enjoying sailing, snorkeling, wandering and just sitting around. The Grenadines sort of encourage that type of behaviour. SVG is made up of the main island of St. Vincent and a string of smaller islands stretching south as far as Carriacou. The islands are all within a short sail of each other, the trade winds are reliable, the anchorages are pretty and the beaches and towns ashore are just lovely. The Gods were having a good day when they designed this neck of the woods. And it's very chill
