Back to Union Island

We had a really quiet night, caught up on a lot of sleep and got up fairly early to do the last chores on the boat before the guests arrived. Julia and Carlos enjoyed their time with no school very much and were trying to encourage us to do more charter. I wonder why? The next four days we will be hosting a young couple from Germany and we are all eager to meet them. While I prepared breakfast, Sven went to shore to pick up Andrea and Mark from Germany. As soon as Andrea and Mark are on the boat is feelt like the sun is shining from every corner of the boat. They are a delightful couple and I can feel that we will have lots of fun on the boat for the next few days. Andrea is laughing all the time and Mark is a very quiet comfortable person to have around. Before setting sail towards Union Island we have to fuel up our JUCA, and lucky us there is cheap fuel available in Carriacou. This is our first big adventure on our second charter trip. First we need to dock onto the big barge and then once we finally assured that the fuel is clean we fill the tanks from our JUCA. The last time we fueled up was eight months ago in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Once we were fueled up we settled to sail to Union Island. The weather was nice and the lagoon of Union Island awaited us with its spectacular colors. While I fixed us something for lunch, Sven checked us all into the Grenadines. For the rest of the day we enjoy Union Island. Andrea and Marc went for a little stroll through the little township of Clifton, enjoyed a swim in the crystal clear water and later on we all went for a sundowner to the little bar right in the middle of the lagoon. What a fun day we had.
