Where are we going?! ????

In this video we get ready to leave Carriacou ? we head across to Sandy Island for one last night and then on to Hillsborough. Karen catches a taxi back to Tyrell Bay to check out and then we are on our way up the coast towards Anse La Roche for the night before we head across to Union Island. Unfortunately Anse La Roche Bay was FULL. We aren't used to last minute change of plans like that. Fortunately we took it in our stride, plotted a new course and headed to Petite Martinique for the night. This is very unusual for us because we usually get into quite a spin when plans change in the matter of a few minutes but for some reason these plans changed, fell into place and we were rewarded with seeing a beautiful new island that wasn't on our list of islands o visit! In sailing your plans are constantly changing, I don't think you realise how rapidly until you are doing it full time. This is something we are learning to take in our stride as we have a few control freaks onboard that love a good plan to stick to, which often isn't possible with the ever changing elements that are involved in sailing. Petite Martinique was a quaint tiny island and we are glad we stopped there for the night. The next day we stopped at Mopion Island, a tiny little sand bar between Petite Martinique and Union island. We dropped anchor just off of its shore, jumped in the dingy, did a few loops of the tiny little island known for its sole feature - a grass umbrella and headed back to Saoirse to carry on across to Union island. Once again plans changed, we didn't head into Clifton like we originally wanted to to check in because it was also SUPER busy so we headed around to Frigate island/ Ashton Bay. We dropped anchor in a beautiful, quiet and unique little bay.
