... cutting a passion fruit with D.'s marine knife. So watched House last night. Love that show. Cutty said at the end: You want to kiss me, don't you? House: I always want to kiss you.

[Editor's note-- I'm about to get into some personal ****...FYI. Don't read if you don't want to ...

... brown sugar and butter inside. Quite good. Joyce gave me several presents to bring back. Very nice of her. I gave her and Jem chocolate bars from Trader Joe's but didn't have a full one to give to brenda. I felt bad about that. I wonder if I will ever come back here. Probably not to live but it is a hiker's paradise, Especially for somebody much more dedicated than ...

There is a reason that producers like Jerry Bruckheimer go this island. I'm sure it's for the gorgeous backdrops that make their films amazing, but I can't help but think it's because they enjoy spending time here too....

Since we're more active these days, we chose Dominica to do some hiking and ziplining. Steve took the ship sponsored "Dominica Challenge Course Adventure". Rave reviews on that one! You leave the ...

Hello Everyone! Today our second port of call is Dominica! We wake-up after 800 am, we slept good, and thanks God Makayla never fussed the whole night. Went to our breakfast, and as usual my "big-eater" family enjoyed all the food, its all yummy! Today we decided to take all the kids with us in our itinerary.

... It must have been nice, but having not brought our bathing suits, we could not go in. :(

At the end of the tour, we had the pleasure of enjoying a complimentary fruit juice at the Springfield Plantation Guest House prior of returning to the ship. The freshly squeezed juice sure was a bonus treat with its oranges having just been picked up from the trees. The plantation also provided us with lots of pictures ...

... br> After the hot soak, you go up to the cooler pool which is supposedly a great combination for the skin - going from the hot pool to the cooler pool. It must work because we kept noticing how great our skin felt - my skin feels super soft and silky!

After soaking in the Hot Springs, they provided some local fresh fruits - coconut, grapefruit, pineapple, watermelon - fresh and tasty! In a little cage on the ground ...

... beigesi gerai :), bet skuda. uzdengiu desine aki ir tikru ar matau su suzeista kairiaja - matau, reikia viskas gerai ir einame pirmyn. Pirmyn stumemes sunkiai ir po valandos pasiekeme 1.350 metru aukstyje esancia netikra virsune. Gidas sako - viskas, cia virsune. As jam sakau, kad eisime toliau.

... forest coats two thirds of the island and the island also has 365 rivers...one for each day! As the title suggests, part of the purpose of this trip was for business. Within 2 hours of landed I had finished a meeting and had the rest of the day to relax and explore. On my first night I went with some cousins to a get together. The first drink that I had, a creamy alcholic drink did it for me so unfortunately I didn't take any pictures as I was ...

... from 3:00 until 9:00, but headed in the first day in order not to miss the festivities. We needn't have worried. And, yes, our translation was correct. The parades lasted all day.
