Firefly - Cruising the San Blas Islands



After the passage from Saint Lucia we are now in relax mode leisurely cruising the islands and in Paul's case kitesurfing. We spent two days in the East Hollandes group meeting up with fellow rally participants and snorkeling. We has a great BBQ last night on appropriately named BBQ Island where a local Kuna father and son team cooked our supper on a wood fire. We brought a couple of lobster purchased from the locals and they were delicious.

Leaving the Hollandes we sailed 10 miles East to the Lemon Cays where there are more reefs to snorkel and lobsters to buy. We have also been visited by locals from nearby islands in decidedly unseaworthy canoes selling us Mollas the local hand embroidered and layered fabric panels- after lots of negotiation Susie bought one; the designs are quite unique depicting local features; parrots,turtles, coral and of course lobsters! Susie's has a parrot motif so Grateful is pleased.

Paul, Susie,Peter and Grateful
