Location: Guadeloupe
When was the last time you started your day at the very beginning? In technical terms, I mean – zero hundred hours – the literal beginning of the day. We just did. Shortly before midnight, all hands were called on deck to prepare to sail to Antigua. It was an eventful end to an already eventful day. Prior to our evening departure, we had sailed from the Les Saintes to Guadeloupe for a half-day tour de aqua, so to speak. We never touched the shore but rather stopped at the island of Guadeloupe to do a quick dive into one of the island’s more famous sites, which includes an underwater statue of Monsieur Jacques Cousteau. In addition, our afternoon was peppered with light rain, scientific exploration, and anticipation of our nightly sailall in all, another adventurous day.
