Jouvert, revisited!
The little green throw-away camera from Trinidad carnival’s "Jouvert" popped up today. Along with the last photo CD from the Caribbean, we get it processed. A lot of body-painted Donald Duck costumed "sailor boys", and gals, appear. In the first, 4am pictures we look sort of concerned. Forced smiles? In the bright daylight pictures at the finish line, we look totally exhausted and a little pleased with ourselves. We had danced Jouvert through the streets of Port-of-Spain all night, ushering in "We Carnival Nice, 2006" in Trinidad.
Flash forward to April in Sint Maarten: we're busy with a lot of boat-errands today, getting ready to sail soon: gas bottles to be filled, the genoa2 to replace the smaller crossing jib.
And tomorrow, an early rise, to move "Babette" to Island Water World Marina for hauling out.
We have an 8:30am appointment.
