More Seychelles photos

This beach was apparently voted by the Times 'the most beautiful beach in the world' so we decided to check it out. We were towing a dinghy and we could use an outboard to move us around. Unfortunately, what we could not foresee from the boat was that the waves were pretty big and it was rather difficult to get back to the boat. You can see our faithful vessel in the background. not a great photo as I used the waterproof one-time use only camera for this picture. Nat and Wouter having breakfast under sail on a beautiful and dry morning. We had picked the 'rainy' season to go, everything was cheaper. However, the 'rainy' season really means that it rains for two hours in the afternoon....usually at the exact same time every day. The rest of the time was paradise. And since we didn't want to use up a lot of the water that we had since there was only one port we could get more water, we welcome that warm rain as we could desalt and take a shower in the natural environment. As soon as it rained, there was all of us on deck with shampoo and soap... Nat digesting George, a dear (Greek) friend, on the helm. In the background, you can see the outboard that we used on the dinghy. Furling up the genoa as we were getting ready to anchor for the evening Mark (British) driving and Wouter's back. I was already taking the Frog around on sailing trips!!!! Hope you can see it dangling in the companionway...
