Feast relax, but after two days is the time to leave the Tobago Cays and return to the south. Let's start with kudra and so, after a night at Sandy Island, Grenada reach.
few days of shopping and preparations and at the end of a quiet day in mid-January we set sail again with the last light and you point to the south-west to los testigos, the first offshore islands of Venezuela.
The evening is calm, sheltered from the sea is calm Grenada and, unfortunately, finds it hard to get the wind, engine for a couple of hours with a breeze from the east who sends us in the cockpit drain diesel, ugly pace. Finally the wind decides to blow accompanied reinforced by a wave and allows us to explain mainsail jib and mizzen and stop the engine, now it's a good night! To try to improve the pace we decided to tighten a little wind and in short, also because of some knot , we lose sight kudra, there is nobody on the horizon, the moon seems to illuminate a light blue blanket and hidden by the clouds disappear and all our nicolandra plunging the world into darkness. 
you surf, the sighting of two lights puts us on the lookout, it is our first crossing since we are en route to Venezuela, where these are the Pirates! No, it's just a container 3 km long, so good (Assuming that the past behind!).
It 's always a great experience surfing at night (because last night went up to almost 2 months before), when the light dims and finally leaves you, the curtain rises on a new sea is everything black or gleaming in the moonlight and it seems even more immense.
acknowledge, however, the sounds, the wind blows you
says it's always him and the sound of the waves you family, we can therefore rest assured, even the next sunrise
We will grind
miles veterans happy umpteenth night.
the morning and catch sight of the islets of Noreste conejo at 2 o'clock, a call on VHF kudra of us that are approaching from the north and also in their 4-5 miles, we are perfect , an arrival in unison after 90 miles!
The wind blowing around 20 knots and direct it through voyant big isla iguana, we enter the channel, wrap the ribbon, we dropped the mainsail and the bottom front of the village of isla iguana to make contact with guardacostas.
E 'venezuela!
