Doug and Jan West Visit St. Lucia and KINGDOM

Our dear friends Jan and Doug West came with Susan when she returned to St. Lucia October 3rd. It was really fun to have them aboard. We spent time at the hotel pool, made a trip to the Pitons for snorkeling, up to Rodney Bay for a bit of beach time, and of course played Bananas on the aft deck. We had sundowners at Chateau Mygo, and a dinner at Doolittle's Restaurant. Doug and Jan also took a day to go Zip-Lining in the rainforest, but that will be in a separate blog entry.

Doug looks like he has done this before (driving dinghy)

Unfortunately, few photos of Jan West exist in this journal, she was the Photographer, and these shots represent her most successful marine photoleveling attempts. Thank you Jan!
