Day 140- Jolly Harbor, Antigua

Yesterday was a day of exploring.  We walked to the beach and played in the waves for a while.  And took a trip out of Jolly Harbor to the more "real" part of the island.  We rode a van across much of the island to an old fort called Shirley Heights.  Shirley Heights sits high on hill over looking a beautiful Falmouth Harbour.  We spent the evening listening Antigua's best steel drum band and eating great BBQ in an amazingly scenic location. The roads in Antigua are narrow, windy and lined with interesting people and markets. Really looking forward to exploring the local scene a bit more.

  3. Random question from the future... Where did you store the dinghy on the 37 during the passage?
