Sv Liahona – Captain Mark and Admiral Willie along with
crew/guests Dick (Big Dick) and Deb, Canadians that previously cruised but who

Guyana. FYI - Mark and Willie have a large dinghy with big outboard. They also borrowed sv Cape's large dinghy with big outboard for this trip. These two plus sv Persephone's dinghy were the primary modes of transport for the 4 miles trip into Bartica.

the Americans on this trip). First time

Oh what a circus we were wherever we went. We couldn’t help it. I hope at least we were entertaining to the
locals like a circus would be.
Ohmidog, someone took their beautiful Boston Terrier along, and didn't even get a mention!? I wonder how easy/difficult it was to get their dog into Guyana. I know when we were planning on cruising, some countries made it much harder than others for pets to enter.
ReplyDelete"Tippy" belongs to Stuart and Paul and has dual petship in Canada and Guyana. Tippy goes everywhere, including Diwali. The fireworks and crowds didn't seem to bother Tippy at all. It was fun walking behind Paul and Tippy, all the locals stopped and pointed at Tippy as they pasted by. I don't think Boston Terriers are common in Guyana.
