As I wait to go ashore for my tour, I watch the activities in the harbor. There's a famous sailing school in St. Pierre and Miquelon. I see the sailboats and the folks being monitored by their instructors in boats. The zodiac I'm to use comes from this school.

It is a great day for a little practice at sailing. |

This one successfully navigated around the buoy. |

My elementary French lets me know that this boat is marked "Boat School." |
 |
Either this student is being commended or reprimanded for his performance today. |

It appears I'm not the only one watching a boat in the harbor. This looks like police officials keeping an eye on our ship. |
