Photo:  David and Peg snorkel on Noronsquis

    After checking into Los Roques, we sailed to an anchorage about 4 miles from Gran Roque on the island of Noronsquis.  The island is surrounded by reefs and the noise of the breaking surf is constant.  At night it becomes a white noise that lulls us to sleep. The snorkeling is fairly good, with lots of schools of brightly colored tropical fish.

    David leaves tomorrow from Gran Roques to fly to Caracas and then to home.  There is a landing strip and control tower here and he will be flying off in a DC3, a tail-dragger of a plane that Tom thinks is just classy as all get out.
