Travels and the circle of life in Eleuthera….

This week we have been on our travels – a quick trip to Key West for a wedding – but we also experience the circle of life here in Eleuthera. It was our first trip to Key West and following lots of advice we decided to drive down there. Of course , living where we do means that a road […]

Buccaneer burger bash with the Exceptional Learners

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 […]

Furnishing the houses at the Old Duck Inn Eleuthera.

I am now in the thick of furnishing the houses we have renovated and built at the Old Duck Inn site right here in Eleuthera. Usually I buy pretty much everything from the US and ship it over but this time I decided to have all the bed frames and nightstands made here on the island by one of our […]

Latest progress at the Duck Inn site in Governors Harbour

This week I want to bring you up to date with the latest progress at the former Duck Inn site – right here in Governors Harbour.

The Special Olympics Bocce Tournament 2017

At the weekend we enjoyed the Special Olympics Bocce Tournament for 2017 in Tarpum Bay. It was such a fun couple of days with teams from 4 islands in the Bahamas competing. Grand Bahama, New Providence, Abaco and Eleuthera. Many faces were familiar from last year and the participants and helpers all mingled and mixed together. The weather was kind […]

Five days in the Land of Plenty !

Bob and I have just spent five days in the Land of Plenty – aka the US – more specifically the Fort Lauderdale area. Although we really love our life in Eleuthera, sometimes it is good to get away for a short break….. We combine slaking island fever with shopping and researching for the various projects we have on at […]

Raclette party, flea market and a random act of kindness !
