This is my favorite time in Eleuthera – the Special Olympics Bocce Tournament – the time when teams from 5 islands of the Bahamas get together for some serious games of Bocce and some serious fun as well ! The last 2 years there have been 4 islands competing – but this year Exuma joined the tournament with two chaps […]

So plenty of sport here in Eleuthera this week – with a basketball camp last Saturday and the upcoming Special Olympics Bocce Tournament this coming weekend. Mahershal Simonet – a professional basketball player from Los Angeles – turned out to hold a one day camp in Governors Harbour for youngsters from the length of the island. It was a great […]
So Art In The Park was a one of a couple of successful events here in Eleuthera during the last week . It was was extremely well supported – plenty of people – in fact around 280 – attended the Leon Levy Preserve on a beautiful sunny Saturday afternoon to look at and buy some of the varied art work […]
Flagging up this Saturday – 24th March 18 – when the Art in the Park exhibition is taking place. It is being held at the Leon Levy Preserve right here in Governors Harbour and proceeds are for the Exceptional Learners Center – the cause probably closest to my heart of all the ones we support…. I know it is going […]
We have some wonderful people here in Eleuthera and the 2 projects – The Eleuthera Lizard Trail and Art in the Park – are both the brainchild of a homeowner in Double Bay – the inspirational Loretta Bonet. She has come up with two brilliant ideas and I am so happy to write about them here and raise awareness and […]
Just in case you didn’t realize, Christmas 2017 is coming to Eleuthera whether you are ready or not !!!! Last week on Thursday we had the Exceptional Learners Christmas Pizza party at Tippy’s. As usual there was too much pizza, ice cream, sodas and just about enough presents. The children really enjoy themselves and know us well enough now that […]
So this last weekend Bob and I took a pre Christmas trip to Fort Lauderdale – mainly to buy the Christmas presents for the 12 children at the Exceptional Learners Centre. It is a bit of a buying frenzy – we hit the stores usually with some type of list for them – but them it just turns into a […]
This week – the first in December – a quick look at what is happening in Governors Harbour Eleuthera. Of course lots of places are getting ready for the Christmas season – and boats arriving from both the US and Nassau are laden with goods. A busy time on the dock…… We are busy too, trying to press on with […]
There were plenty of Halloween shenanigans in Governors Harbour this week …. When Bob and I left the UK thirteen years ago to come and live in Eleuthera not much was made of Halloween in the UK, but now I understand that situation has changed and it is quite a big thing there as well. The party kicked off on […]
This week we had a burger bash at the Buccaneer Inn for the end of term party with the Exceptional Learners….. It has all been a bit chaotic with plans changing at the last minute – but one thing is certain – the kids expect and deserve their party ! Fortunately the Buccaneer is within easy walking distance for them […]
