Anguilla to St Maarten

A very short 18miles or so but anything can happen at sea….

I was watching the girls doing their Ordnance Survey quiz book….

When I heard a loud noise behind us….

And this fellow came swooping overhead…

To skim the sun hats off the sun worshippers on the beach…..

Just type in plane landing at Princess Juliana airport to google for more up close shots.

I will also confess that shortly after this Tom and I realised that the bright orange mooring buoys we’d just passed probably marked an exclusion zone (not mentioned on our chart). All’s well that ends well!
