What can beat a happy hour and fun times with good friends? Here we celebrate with a rum punch won on trivia night. Andrea and Phil (forward) hosted the team aboard their beautiful catamaran, Anastasia.
While I recover in Florida, the team won again; this time first place. The prize was a dinghy donut ride, 2 pizzas and a case of beer. Now that would have helped my recovery, for sure!
As we thought we would be leaving soon, Jon finally decided an island tour was in order. Overlooking busy St. George's harbor.
A first for both of us was a trip to the nutmeg processing plant. Bought Opti a souvenir, her very own burlap bag. She loves to rub and roll on it after her daily swims.
We toured both the chocolate factory and the rum factory and had samples at each. FYI, we did NOT drink both bottles of rum! The first bottle is 75% alcohol and is above the 70% limit allowed to be exported or flown off island. The second bottle is called airplane rum and is 69% alcohol. Both are way too strong (think rot gut) for me. Now the chocolate is another matter.
One of my favorite pictures! Jon is walking on the beach that was instrumental in making all beaches public in Grenada. A private owner had blocked access to this spot. Locals protested, and the property owner had to allow public access. Now all beaches are public. Even the ones behind the fancy resorts!
Then I went on another hash ...
With this. So now I'm biding my time on land here in Florida while Jon and Opti patiently wait for my return. Hoping to get my sea legs back soon.
