October 29, 2016 – Under an Endless Sky

For my birthday I was treated to my first dive in the Caribbean and I am hooked! I dived at Sunset House Dive School click here.

Just incredible an hour of theory and training in the pool before hitting the sea.

It was magical. The fish and the coral were stunning.

We flew, swimming does not describe it, in 50 foot of crystal clear water surrounded by sea life. Jacks, grouper, parrot fish, lion fish, trumpet fish and barracudas all colours and sizes.

The high point was rounding a coral outcrop and there she was, just stunning, she just took my breath away!

She is beautiful and you just hover there in front of her it’s like being in a cathedral.

I’ve already signed up for my full PADI Course!

After I sat at the bar overlooking the sea enjoying an ice cold beer and a cheese burger and watched the sun go down. Just perfect!

Our first visitors arrived this week to spend half term with us and despite the utterly relentless rain we have had a good time! The rain has been torrential at times but we have managed to snatch time out between down pours.

Roger and Sally arrived bang on time at 3:55pm on Monday.

A tour of the island and lunch at Rum Point. Mud Sldes are lovely!

We had a visit to Starfish Point. We saw 105 Starfish the most we have seen in one visit.

On the way back we came round past Eastend and stopped to see the sights, including a garden full of concrete creatures and the Blow Holes. (James is wearing his skateboard knee pads, his knees are currently shredded from falling off a couple of times…).
