Family Visit
02 February 2013 | Volleyball Beach, George Town
January 28th - 31st - Although the winds continued for the whole week Colleen and Kyle were here, we kept busy with swimming, snorkeling, visiting beach bars and having dinners with friends. We had Truant aboard for dinner one night and we sang while Mark played his squeezebox. Last night we had dinner aboard Grand Cru along with Truant - what a fun night - we had a great dinner and plenty of laughter.
This morning (Thursday) Colleen and Kyle had to be ready for the water taxi at 10 am. They had a swim before breakfast and spent their last half hour tanning. Wouldn't you know - it's their last day and the wind has finally calmed down! It is forecast to be very windy again tomorrow. Mark and Joanne, Truant, also left this morning - I think this will be a very quiet day! Yesterday I attended a basket-making class, so I'll at least have another one of those to attend today. If you choose to be involved, there is volleyball, baseball, scrabble, dominoes, bocce and horseshoes every day at the beach. It's a floating retirement RV community here!
We took the water taxi to Peace and Plenty for dinner to celebrate Bob's birthday (Peaceful, Easy Feeling) along with Eagles Wings, Grand Cru and a couple of others we hadn't met before. It was a great evening - they had barbeque and the same band we heard a few days ago at Lattitude.
