Grenada Fish Fry – July 1-2, 2013

When Dwight learned that we would soon be moving down to Trinidad, he suggested that he and Stevie provide some fish for a farewell fish fry.  And so it was that on Monday, July 1, the Terns and the Takks and “the boys” had an afternoon feast aboard TT2, a feast that included three snappers, a huge cero and three lion fish, as well as pumpkin and bodie beans, rice and beans, coleslaw, and fried okra.  Followed by ice cream and cookies.  Yummy!

On July 2 we moved over to Prickly Bay in order to check out of Grenada, and to stage for our trip down to Trinidad.  We noticed the tug Flying Buzzard busily salvaging the remains of Uisge Beatha, a 80′ 2010 sailboat that had tragically burned in the Bay on June 14.  Pictures of the fire can be seen at the blog www.ourlifeatsea.com.

We left Prickly Bay at 1:10 AM on July 3.  To learn about our voyage and our adventures in Trinidad, see our next blog post.
