Day 1 St.Vincent - Windward Coast

Day 1 - St.Vincent - Owia Salt Pond

Owia Salt Pond is a naturally fed ‘bathing’ pool at the very northern tip of St.Vincent

All black volcanic stone with lots of small pools with colourful and sea urchins - like the one I stepped on! You’d think I would see something red in the water - all is well though.

Here’s a few photos and a video of Barry when the pool filled up. And a photo of the stairs - there is a lot but it was worth it! Not surprised to see a bar halfway up!

Here we are in 2020 and I am helping out with Patti’s blog of our travels. It has been awhile since it was updated. Patti says it is our blog not just hers. Ok it’s our blog.

It was a long trip to get here.Megan dropped us of at YLW  on Wednesday at 14:30 hrs. We arrived in St Vincent at 17:10 on Thursday. 1 hr lay over in Calgary  and a 6.5 hr lay over in Toronto. We get on the plane in Toronto, back away from the gate and start taxiing toward the runway when we stopped. The Pilot comes on the intercom and advises us there was some indication that there was a problem that needed fixing. We went back to a gate and sat in the plane for 2 hrs before they got it fixed.

So we were two hrs later arriving in St. Vincent. We arrived safe and sound but a little stiff and sore. To bed early and had a driving tour today at 10:00 hrs to17:00 hrs. Some pics to follow.
