Friday 2 February 2018 We had awoken earlyish after our recovery nights sleep. A slow start to the day was in order. Pat sorted out our stuff, the UK heavy clothing certainly not required for the time being. We eventually left the room for an explore about 1100. First stop, Starbucks for coffee. Weather sunny and hot. We ambled along, looking at shops and people watching. Up to the coast, stopped for more drinks. Purchased an Aonang hat. Lunch was at an Indian / Thai restaurant looking out to sea. Pat had the Pad Thai and asked for not spicy, I ordered Thai Green curry. Pat's came spicier than she likes, but not strong enough to not eat it. Mine broke through my sore throat and was excellent. Our pace was definitely slow today, but it ... read more

Day 29 - Monday 27 February 2017 cont'd The rain continued, so we decided to start our packing now as we were not able to do much else. Pat prefers to do the packing, so I just kept providing the coffee and tried to keep out of the way. We went for lunch at 12.30 pm, having a drink on the way. After lunch we did our usual stroll around the grounds. I decided we needed a little walk in the afternoon, so we initially headed left to see what height the tide was and if there was a chance to walk past Sandy Lane again. It was too high, so we headed right (North) in Holetown direction. We just went to the next proper area of beach and both had a swim, as it was ... read more

Day 22 - Monday 20 February, 2017 cont'd We started packing and generally sorting things out, when we got up. At 11.45 am we headed off to Speightstown. On the coastal way in - the pretty way - Pat spotted some turtles in the sea. I couldn't catch sight of them at first, but eventually one popped it's head out of the water for me to see. We have run out of both of our coffees now. Me for instant, Pat for filtered. So, I promised Pat a proper coffee in town for her to get some caffeine. The Beach shack didn't look like he had any coffee on the go, so Juma's was our next option. We watched the world going by and the waves breaking against the shoreline for a while. Then off to ... read more

Day 15 - Tuesday 13 February 2017 cont'd We had some rolls and crisps for our tea. About 7.30 pm we popped out in the car to Fisherman's pub to do some internetting. As we arrived we realised that we were the only one's in. They we're closing shutters and tidying up. We managed to get some stuff done on the WiFi before they told us they were actually closing up for the night. It's a long time since I've been thrown out of a place. Home for a good nights sleep. Day 16 - Tuesday 14 February 2017 Objective for the day was to return the car to Fat Jack's in Dover by 12.45 pm. I had spotted a large mall advertised, that was on the way called Sheraton's, so we thought to find that. ... read more

Day 10 - Wednesday 8 February 2017 It rained heavily in the night, but it was sunshine when we surfaced, although breezy. Our plan was to drop off some laundry and spend some time on the beach. We started off the day in no hurry and sorted the washing out. We left the apartment about 1120 am and ambled into town. The laundry was open and took our washing at B$16 per load. We seemed to have a load. There was an express service with stuff ready in three days, but we didn't elect for this, so our stuff will be back next week sometime. Next stop the beach. Most places have beach beds, but we chose Juma's for today. We settled down and went for some drinks. The shade provided by the tree was convenient ... read more
