La Bougainvillea

A glorious summer camp at Haynes Library

Last Friday saw the finish of a glorious summer camp at Haynes Library here in Governors Harbour. I have already told you that the theme was around the world in 30 days – well the last week after having been all around the world they made rockets to go off in to outer space ! They were made with Alka […]

Easter and other treats in Governors Harbour

So we enjoyed the 4 day break that Easter brought along with other treats here in Governors Harbour and of course Bocce coming up this weekend. On Good Friday Bob and I treated ourselves to a lovely lunch at La Bougainvillea. We shared a chicken satay followed by a huge sushi roll which was absolutely delicious. La Bougainvillea is going […]

A joyous night for HACE in Eleuthera.

Monday 15th April – the day after the Jazz Festival finished – was a joyous night raising funds for HACE in Eleuthera. It was held at La Bougainvillea and they were fabulous hosts. Plenty of people came and ate as well as those who just came to enjoy the music. Quite a few of the musicians had stayed on and […]

Indi returns to London from Eleuthera and All That Jazz.

So Friday last week our grandson Indi returned to London after a month in Eleuthera. Needless to say the time just flew – but it was a great opportunity to get to know him on a deeper level than we ever otherwise would have done. Many thanks to American Airlines who made the worry of an unaccompanied minor flying halfway […]

Boy Meets Girl Weddings do their thing in Eleuthera

It was a great opportunity to see them in action – and it was really impressive. They built a runway down the length of the swimming pool so that the […]

Walk for the Cure in Eleuthera, pizza & dogs !

So Saturday saw a good sized group of us meeting up at 7am outside CIBC First Caribbean Bank in Governors Harbour to Walk For the Cure Eleuthera. This walk raises money locally here on the island to help support people with cancer – paying for traveling expenses etc. When someone in your family has cancer it is a super stressful […]

Two new kitchens and a Royal Wedding !

Well this week we have been working like billy-o to install 2 new kitchens and watch the royal wedding ! Busy times at the top of the hill in Governors Harbour. The kitchen in the downstairs apartment at the Peach House was looking a little shabby – it has been in for 13 years now – amazing how the time […]

At last La Bougainvillea for lunch ….

So this week we finally made it to La Bougainvillea for lunch ! What with cool breezy weather and an overpacked schedule it has taken us some time to visit Eleuthera’s latest venue – but it was worth the wait and we ate a beautiful lunch there the other day. Tom Marazza is the owner and in fact has owned […]

Here we are in a brand new year 2017 !

Well here we are in a brand new year already – 2017 ! It’s here whether you were ready or not – I know that a huge amount of people were more than happy to kiss 2016 goodbye – a very bad year for all sorts of reasons and all sorts of people….. Most years our Christmas and New Year […]
