Wasting Away in Margaritaville

---

We’re back on Grand Turk today. Except now I’ve already seen the whole island, so there’s not much to do beside lie on the beach. So I did. All day. Except for the hour spent in Margaritaville with Brooks, Chelsea & Kristina (they’re both production singers). If you’re ever coming to Grand Turk, come for the beach, not for the Margaritaville. The Parrothead Café is better! I took a long walk along the beach on my own just before coming on the ship which was really nice. Peaceful. Pretty.

Tonight I went to see the Guster concert. I’d never heard of them before this cruise, but I really really really enjoyed them. They have a boppy rock sort of sound, very early 90s, sort of reminded me of some combination of Blind Melon, Filter and BNL. Some songs instantly made me want to choreograph (always a good sign for me), others I can just imagine driving the Ontario highways for Keating slideshows singing along and drumming on the steering wheel. I’ll be picking up a CD tomorrow.

Sarah Willett has suggested that I provide a photographic tour of my living and working environment on the cruise. It will be done. Brooks & I have been concocting plan to take fun pictures around the ship. But I need to wait until this charter is over and my access around the ship is back to normal. But coming soon to your computer screen!

If Hillary, Dar and Uncle Neil are out there reading this, happy birthday!
