Guests on board

For the past week we have had some guests on board. The Dunnum family from Colorado. They have two boys thirteen and fifteen. It meant that we got to go out to eat which was a break from mom’s cooking for a change:). We even got to go on a zip line tour through the rainforest. I think this was the best part. They would hook you up and then you would fly over the jungle. Many times you would land on a platform 100 feet in the air on a tree!! There were twelve zip lines and some of them had small hikes in between. The longest one was 800 feet long! 

At the zip line we met a “rapper” guy named “Winnie”  and taught him how to make rice crispy treats after we shared ours with him. He thinks he is going to sell them and make a fortune. We think he will either A: not be able to make them, B: make them and eat them all himself, or C: just laugh with his friends about “those dumb Americans”. 

We stayed in Marigot Bay a few nights and enjoyed their big rope swing. We invented a game where you would have to swing across the water and back without touching it. We would take turns and the first one to touch the water loses. There were some times when I was hanging upside down and my head was an inch from the water.

We left the Dunham’s left yesterday at a beautiful resort overlooking the Pitons and continued to the Grenadines. Today we went to a sea turtle reserve. It was really cool because we got to touch all the turtles.      EK
