Grenada 17 June

So today we sailed to Grenada. This involved sailing right over the top of an active vulcano. The only thing we noticed was high waves. There is an exclusion zone but I think we went through that. Today we also hit 8.5 knots sailing which was our record so far. Felt fantastic. I was behind the wheel because we let the autopilot rest so we do not use too much power. We we took a mooring in a marine park on the coast of Grenada and went snorkeling. There is a lot of statues under the water here they put down as an artificial reef. This was amazing. All sorts of statues like someone behind a table with a type writer. A big group of children in a circle. Someone on a bike and another praying. You can see it if you look on the Internet for 'under water statues in Grenada. A bit eery though. After that we went back to our boats showered and went to our friends boat to celebrate arriving at our destination with s bottle of champagne
