They were waiting for us, singing and raising and lowering their oars.
Then they started to move.
Then they paddled desperately (the ship came awfully close to one of them).
We then went snorkelling at the lava flow. You still get sunburn if it’s raining when you start. The coral and fish were fantastic.
In the afternoon, we went to the town and were greeted with musicians
and ceremony.
We had a town tour, which included the museum, the two forts and a nutmeg and cinnamon plantation.
The first fort is lower, Fort Nassau
and Fort Belgica overlooks it.
We had music and dancing on the top of the fort, including watching the nutmeg dance.
