Our last Wednesday here...... - 04/29/2021 02:53 AM
So our time is really growing short and I can hardly believe we’ve been here two weeks already. We haven’t been to many places nor have we done many things but this has been an enjoyable trip. There hasn’t been any inclination to try to ‘see it all - do it all’ in one short trip so it has been very relaxing.
I awoke again around 6 a.m. but felt no strong motivation to rise and shine early. Checked the waves and they seemed a little louder than they’ve been most of our stay and the water seemed a darker shade of blue rather than the beautiful turquoise hues we’ve experienced for most of our trip. I can only describe the sea by us here at BSV as looking angry and the waves are actually curling and crashing on the beach.
Had breakfast - such as it is when we eat in - of coffee/and, the and consisting of whatever we had left on hand. For DH that was a Jules pastry and for me, a piece of baguette toast. It felt like gourmet to us but probably not to others.
And I did see a huge yacht pass by in the distance this morning - the first really big one I’ve seen in the open waters. Not a cruise ship to be seen which is unusual, and Saba? She be gone again, that little devil. But she be back sooner or later.
Spent some time at the pool and then finished up that yummy tuna salad for lunch. It looks as though it could rain. Or not? We planned on time at the pool but that still remains to be seen. At least then we could easily keep track of the delayed Delta flight from the pool deck and know if our friends got off. And finally, at approx. 3 pm, the daily Delta flight is air bound and The_Lurker is on board - JFK here she comes.I wonder if all of yesterday’s stranded passengers made it on board.
Dinner tonight was at Mezza Luna with Sharon Harris and Jeannie Gunthanen. The place was packed and the food was yummy. It was so good to be able to catch up with these two island rock stars. We laughed till we almost cried. Thank you both again for a fun evening and a delicious meal at a place I’ve always heard about and wanted to try yet never quite got around to experiencing. We all had different entrees but three of us had the escargot with garlic and Gorgonzola. Omg! They were so good.
And now, home and to bed because tomorrow is going to be a busy day getting Covid tested and packing and all that other good stuff that goes along with getting ready to go home.
