We woke up early and left Pointe a Pitre’s anchorage as soon as there was enough light for us to spot fish pots.  Unfortunately, it is was a rainy morning and we sailed through several squalls.  We even had to reef the jib once.  We made it safely to Les Saintes around 10a and surprisingly were able to secure our boat to the same mooring ball that we have enjoyed the past two times that we were here.  The anchorage was extremely calm, especially given the conditions from the northerly swell.  (That is why Steve picked this anchorage.) 

Yesterday was Sunday, and many of the stores were closed.  We needed to get cash so that we could pay the gentleman who sails around collecting mooring ball fees for the evening.  We tried to go to the patisserie to buy some desserts, but they were unfortunately closed.  So instead, we got some chocolate ice cream and sat on a street bench eating it while people watching.  It was a relaxing afternoon.  Once we returned to the boat, the sun shone brightly and the water glistened a sparkling green.  It was gorgeous outside and a picture-perfect afternoon.
