There won’t be another Log entry for a few days as we are staying ashore at the Consulate Hotel…

Toured St Helena Island with local guide Tony Brookes. Met Tony in Solomons store, got chatting, next minute we’ve arranged a tour. Finished with drinks at the Consulate Hotel. Booked two nights, stayed 3. Large swells arriving in the anchorage for next few days so will be more pleasant for girls and I to be ashore. Met crazy Dante, a Finnish guy, and Nisha – an Australian author/gynecologist researching Napolean for her next novel. Sent email newsletter to family and friends. Received email from Andrew re: potentially excellent contact in Grenada.
