St Lucia, Jan. 3rd
Today we'll have another crew change. Monique is flying in from Amsterdam.
Knowing she'd come and join us again made her depart at Lagos much easier :-)
The same goes for Marc and Clare by the way. They'll gonna return in February with the kids. Actually Marc had a meeting at the office yesterday and had lunch with Monique so it's more like a hand over and change places :-)
We might even have a fourth crew member. When I came back to the boat yesterday, Rutger was having a chat with a French girl and it turned out she had to leave the boat which she's on. She's hitchhiking around the world. So we had dinner together last night and discussed our plans. She does want to join us but she's on a very low budget and offered to work for the trip. I can understand that and I know a lot of young people are trying to get around that way, but there's no real work to do and I don't want her to do all the cooking and cleaning for us. So. she might just sail with us to Martinique to find a temporary job and move on from there. That's just a short trip from St Lucia and that's more like giving her a lift. Well we'll see what will happen.Anyway, Monique sounded very exited to come over when I called her last night and she's definitely gonna stay for the next 3 weeks :-)
