Regatta Dayz





Here is the lovely path leading to the big beach on the Ocean side of Stocking Island. Also a peek at my Pilates class. The extra training paid off, as we took second place in the Coconut Challenge: Wayne, myself, and Cathy and Dave from Puff. The challenge consisted of 4 silly adults in a dinghy, equipt with one flipper each, paddling like crazy to pick up a maximum number of coconuts that had been released into the bay. It was great, wet, silly fun. We all got boat flags for our efforts. Apparently the entire Regatta nonsense will be chronicled on a website, which (if the pictures are not too incriminating) we will put on the blog. Didn't do as well with the Ultimate Trivia challenge, but Wayne is geared up and stoked to be in the Volleyball tournament tomorrow and then Tennis on Friday. I'm helping with the Children's Day on Friday, then will be in the novice division Bridge tournament (duplicate) on Saturday. Then just the Sand Sculpture event on Monday and Variety Show on Tuesday. Our song, the Georgetown Blues, has become a real cult hit, and we've been asked to sing it for a publicity event for the Bahamian Music Festival. The event will be televised and put on Youtube. Yikes! As such, I have a GREAT excuse to go out and buy something new to wear, which I am about to do! Life is silly and fun, and we'll keep you updated as to our successes and failures as they come.
