Sandy Bay Beach Club - All Inclusive Worthing

... to Rhonda and her advice, we also visited St Nicholas Abbey, which was lovely…..and in the evening treated ourselves to dinner at The FishPot (excellent) after lunch at Nanika (no wonder we piled on the pounds this holiday)!

All in all, a most relaxing and enjoyable end to our Caribbean adventure…..the R&R necessary to ensure a calm approach to our 44 hour journey back here to Surabaya!

... his hardest to get me on a plane, however my not acting fast enough led to a very good ticket for $500US slipping away. So I pulled some strings, and I'm now going to Toronto direct on Wednesday I'm bummed out like mad that I can't go to NYC and possibly not even Detroit, but I guess it just happens sometimes. Next time I guess.. But at least now I can go to Canada! Wednesday can't come fast enough.

This is my third day trying to get out of the island on standby. I was 38/47 on the list earlier. So many families of staff members using their tickets for holiday.. It's insanity. It seems to be impossible to get out of the Caribbean right now! Hopefully I'll figure out something soon, otherwise I may have to cancel parts of my itinerary.. :(

... I was a little bit disappointed that the tour did not stopped here. I would have like to.

We then proceeded to St. John's Church which is perched 800 feet above the Atlantic ocean. Here, we got off the bus and enjoyed our tour inside as well as outside the church. It was amazing. From the back of the church, a magnificent view of the blue azure ocean could be seen. It was absolutely breathtaking.

There were several tombs ...

... Hourrah! Mi and I decided to sit way at the back of the boat for more excitement. Well, we sure were not disappointed. The ride was extremely a high speed one. With excitement, I kept yelling and yelling as water kept splashing on my face and the boat jumping the high waves. By the time we arrived at Turtle Bay, well, Mi and I were soaked. Regardless, we had our bathing suits on. Ha Ha! It sure was a fun ride ...

... 30, then met Paul and Gayle at 5:30 for, yes, more drinks!!! The ship drink of the day was the Summer Breeze. Quite yummy. Sat out on the deck and had a drink before migrating to the Island Grill for dinner. It was casual night in the main dining room, but nothing looked that great on the menu so we headed for the Grill again. After dinner, Kathy had an appointment with the ship acupuncturist. I've ...

... orientation. Friday marked my first trip to the beach. It was GORGEOUS!!! The water is warm and blue and the beach is down the hill so it's the walk back that is killer. There are some rocks on the shore but they're pretty small. Some guys on jet skis came up wanting to make some money...but we told them we had none so they took us on a short ride for free. It was fun but nothing I'd pay for. Friday night was an end of summer party/dance put on by the Student Guild. It was $20 to get ...

... real" classes i am taking for my major, are fairly dull. one teacher puts handouts online, then prints it out, brings it to class, and reads it for the entire two hours of lecture. the other teacher is a little better, but still just takes passages from the reading and puts them on the overhead projector. it's very hard to be motivated to go to class when people teach like that, so we'll see how my resolve is a little down the line... i'm looking at my list of stuff to talk ...

... cricket (at least I think that was it- it is damn hard to understand them) Waiting for us at the airport was Tugga Waugh but unfortunately he ignored us and met his wife. Our hotel has been untouched since 1950 a state that much of Barbados is in. In some places it is quite run down and when a hotel/business closes they seem to just leave the building to slowly crumble away. But the beaches are great. The first night we were to meet Garrath ...
