This afternoon one of my former partners, Dwight, and his wife, Kati, arrived at Leu Cat. Kati will be with us for 5 days and Dwight will be with us for 7 days. The fellow we hired to wash and polish our boat, Vision, was the one to pick them up at the airport. This is the slow season here and he is trying to find income sources anyway he can. Thus, we hired him to meet our friends at the airport and he will take them back when they leave.

Both Dwight and Kati are experienced travelers and came with just a couple of small, soft bags, which was very impressive. It was so good to see them both again and it is a treat for us to have them come to spend some time with us. They both looked really good, even though they were bushed from the long flights to get here.

We cracked open a couple of bottles of sparkling wine to celebrate their arrival. Ohhh, it went down so smooth. We all loved the wine so much, Dwight and I will return to the bottle shop tomorrow to pick up some more.

Mary Margaret had cooked up her special Leu Cat eggplant parmesan and I then grilled some steaks and with a colorful salad and homemade blue cheese dressing, we feasted for dinner. It was delicious!

After dinner we talked about what Dwight and Kati would like to do and see while here. We decided that we would be sailing south to do some diving on the colorful reefs in a couple of days. For tomorrow, we will go visit the national park out on Pigeon Island, do a little last minute shopping and then have a great dinner at Big Chef, one of the best restaurants on the island. It sounds like a great start to a great visit!
