Not the best picture but the islands are lined up. Saba Nevis St Kitts and Barts.

Scubaman !! A picture !! Thank You. By the way good shot!

My eyes aren't very good, I only see three, but it looks pretty cloudy.

I think the second one is Statia. You can't see St. Barthelemy from Flamingo.

Saba, Statia, St. Kitts, Nevis.

Correct. I’m actually going to a store today in Chatham - Cape Cod, that sells maps. Will be looking for the map of all the islands.

I could not believe the islands, when we were there, at the end of April.

We were headed to Indigo Bay---it was amazing.

Agree

Kim could you go to the fish market on the water and send me about fifty pounds of whatever is fresh. Really miss that market.

Haha. I’m about 100 steps from the pier. If the rain stops I’m on it!


So regarding Scubas post. We went to the map store and I found a “Leeward Islands Map” from I think the 1850’s. But I was able to have them make me a copy of part of it. I’m very excited and once I receive it I will post a pic. It includes Monserrat, Dominica, St Barths, Anguilla, Sxm, Statia, Saba, St Kitts & Nevis. I ordered an 18x18 print.

I think Statia frequently looks like 2 islands because of the way it's shaped with the Quill volcano, dip in the middle and the small mountain to the right. It's the one to the far left of the picture.

You're correct.

I had never seen the islands so clearly, as this past April.
I couldn't capture a picture.
I never knew how big they were. The clearest day after 2 weeks of clouds, and dust!
