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.

Eleuthera Island Farm – Best of Eleuthera

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.

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

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 […]

Cold front and warm tummy in Governors Harbour

At the time of writing this we are experiencing a cold front here in Governors Harbour. Strong winds and heavy rain – the sort of rain that comes in horizontally and will find any gap it can to seep through and flood into your house in unexpected places ! Temperatures are much lower than normal and the wind whips […]
