Kourou, French Guiana

We have arrived in Kourou, French Guiana. It was smooth sailing until the last day when we had no wind. The current was pushing us at 5 knots though not quite in the right direction, so we motored the last 50 nmi. After motoring for over a month through the Amazon it was great to sail most of the way.

We now have access to grocery stores and French pasteries, it is amazing how exciting that can be when you have not seen either for a while.

Voyager's plans have changed and we will be in this area for a while and then head directly to Tobago. Once Voyager leaves Tobago for Trinidad, they will have completed their circumnavigation.
