The Wonderful People you meet in Eleuthera

We get to meet some wonderful people here in Eleuthera – and this week I am writing about one special person – the chocolatier Oliver Kita. We first met Oliver about 18 months ago – he was visiting Governors Harbour and staying with friends at Wykee Estates. We were invited for a fabulous dinner party – the food was delicious […]

An attitude of gratitude in Governors Harbour

This week we have a big attitude of gratitude here in Governors Harbour. The weather is just beautiful – best week for the last 2 or 3 months – the beaches look absolutely gorgeous and the place is brimming with visitors all enjoying spring break time. Easter is around the corner, swiftly followed by the much anticipated Jazz Festival. Lots […]

Life beyond my comfort zone in Governors Harbour

This week found me living life beyond my comfort zone as it is in Governors Harbour. Even though I said I wouldn’t bore you with the details of my trip to the dentist – I thought I was up for a scale and polish and discussion of a little vanity work – hah ! – the result was that I […]

Slaking Island Fever – a trip to Florida

Sometimes living here in Eleuthera means that island fever hits – so slaking it with a trip away to Florida is what is needed. That’s what we did this week – adding in maintenance essentials like dermatologists and dentists ! I am not going to bore you with the gory details of either of those you will be pleased to […]

Potcakes – a love story in Governors Harbour

So – Potcakes – a love story right here in Governors Harbour. Many of you will know already that our lovely, lovely potcake Joe Louis died last Saturday. He was suffering very badly so we called the vets at Palmdale Veterinary Clinic to come and put him out of his misery and help him on his way……. In the end […]

Joe Louis – our potcake- goes to Nassau

Living on island like Eleuthera has some fantastic advantages but of course there are some things that are more difficult than if you live in a big city. Last year our lovely dog Joe Louis – who many of you know personally – had some health problems. […]

Eleuthera All That Jazz 2016 all over Eleuthera

In the Best of Eleuthera series I want to highlight the upcoming festival of Eleuthera All That Jazz 2016 – happening all over Eleuthera from March 30th – April 3rd. As many of you are aware this raises much needed funds for the Haynes Library – last year over $40,000- a fabulous effort. The festival kicks off this year on […]

Junkanoo Festival in Governors Harbour

So Saturday January 9th ’16 saw the annual Junkanoo Festival here in Governors Harbour. It was a spectacular sight and went on for several hours along a stretch of the Queens Highway outside the Royal Bank of Canada. Junkanoo, for those of you not familiar with it, is a type of Carnival parade with fantastic costumes mainly made from cardboard […]

The week before Christmas in Governors Harbour

The week before Christmas in Governors Harbour– how quickly that has come and how much there is to do and enjoy ! Always important to remember in the rush of everything to savour these times…… There are so many people in the world who, for one reason or another are not able to enjoy the season, that it is important […]

Christmas is coming to Governors Harbour

Christmas is coming to Governors Harbour – and fast ! Last Thursday we had our regular Christmas pizza Party at Tippy’s with the children and staff from the Exceptional Learners Centre. Sadly the fantastic students from the US University who have been working there had to leave before the party so it was just Mr Bill Holland and Ms Dolly […]
