On Thursday, the day was overcast
so I took my book
and Suzanne glimpsed at hers
and then we took the golf cart to the dock
where we met Valerie (Carl's wife)
who took the boat with us to the mainland where we walked past the gym
and across the street
to the Safari taxi
which we took to the street vendors
where I noted the bus
and the signage
before we went into our first store where we met Mark who had bet $60 on the Seahawks. I should note that I was wearing a Steelers shirt and so provoked many comments about the Super Bowl to come.
I left Little Switzerland
to see the Liberty Bell
and its description
as the traffic mounted
and I made my way to the statue of Christian IX in the town square
where I met Tracy Clark who wanted to sell me her book of poems Exiled by my Hair Style
but instead I convinced her to pose with Suzanne
before Peter went to the ATM
and I recorded this picture of the local post office as the shopping continued
so that next we met Donna who was a Steelers fan
and after moving down the street
we bought cigars from Pete
and talked to Denis who was willing to be a Steelers fan for this game
and after noting the Subway (eat fresh)
decided to go to Cuzzins for lunch
where Suzanne and Seva
read the menu
as Peter and I posed for this self double portrait
as Chris arrived in Steeler pariphenalia
even as we recorded the business card of the person who had directed us to this restaurant
and our drinks arrived -- tamarind juice in place of the ginger beer that they had run out of
and then the main courses of many vegetables and some good shrimp
before we went down the next street
and met Steven who doesn't ordinarily follow football but had put $100 on the Steelers.
This was enough time away for me so I took the ferry boat back with the Kramers and made my way to Honeymoon Beach where I met Rosie Page from Richmond who had bet heavily on the Steelers
and then admired the beach
before heading to the dock
at the town center
where I watched the boat come in and Suzanne get off
so that we could go home and she could make her phone call
as we looked out at the scenery
and the cruise ship passing by
before we left the porch
and came in for cocktails which amused Peter
Suzanne
Seva
and me
as we decided to copy the phone book
|
before cutting mushrooms
and getting a demo of the proper way to cut a red pepper
as the salad stuff was assembled
and omelettes were prepared
to go with the wine
that was opened
as my meal arrived
and was garnished
with vegetables as well
for Peter
Suzanne
Seva
and me
and after dinner, Peter got the coconut rum
and cigars
and I lit up
and did my Castro imitation
as we watched the flames form the ashes and celebrated the near end of a wonderful vacation.
