Breezy bliss

The wind was blowing today on the north side of the island (where the restaurant and main area is). The excursion was a sightseeing trip past a nearby island - we've been before so weren't that interested so after breakfast (pancakes) we opted for a relaxing morning reading with the sound of the waves softly crashing into the shore. There's always something to watch on the water here - moving boats and dinghys, people snorkelling or stand up paddleboarding or using kayaks. Before long lunch time had come around - bbq pizza for B and a veg pizza for me, followed by banana and pineapple homemade fritters, yum! This afternoon we headed out for a snorkel (high tide) at about 3pm but the winds had made the reef not as beautiful so we spent a lot of time bobbing up and down rather than snorkelling. We then headed in to the shore and enjoyed the water for a little bit longer before getting out and rinsing off. Just after 5pm we headed round the corner on the beach to collect a shell of the day, look for hermys (hermit crabs), and watch the sunset. After the sunset we did some more reading before dinner - grilled fish with a sweet and sour sauce with rice for both of us, apple cake for B and icecream for me.Read more
