There's nippers and there's grabbers and each has their own deadly rum concoction. Nippers is on the beach and at 10 am you already see people sitting there drinking either nippers or kaliks, the local beer. The public docks get filled with small motor boats that come from all over to the beach and to nippers.
Grabbers faces West so it's for sunset drinks, strong drinks. And the sunset yesterday was spectacular, the night sky even more so. And best of all we woke up to a bright sunny day, practically no wind and temperatures reaching 80 for the first time since we arrived.
Yesterday we snorkeled off the rocks and the water was very pleasant, not at all cold. The snorkeling was alright, there were some fish at least to get us started. Today we are going to rent a golf cart and load our snorkeling gear and start exploring the island.
We continue to have wonderful meals, last night it was Idette's turn to prepare a Mexican feast, with chicken fajitas, rice, beans, guacamole, and everything else. Today we are going to have to swim a LOT to be able to use up all those calories!!

mmmmm....I can even taste the drinks and smell the delicious meals!! Instead I am sick with a bad sinus that hurts and bothers me. I am taking antibiotics and I will feel better soon.
We are going to lunch with Joel and the rest of the 'landed/stranded/left behind crews. After that we plan to leave to North Carolina. We will take the computer so we can be in touch with you and the rest of the world.
We love you
Nehalennia's crew (including Olivia!)
Thank you for the descriptive narration of your adventures. Had an "asado" today here at the house to bid farewell to 2007. Present were the Nehalennias, Mojitos, Patagonia and Last Call. Delicious meat, chorizos and even shrimp as an appetizer. Not bad for a Dec. 28th. Then Mojito and and Last Call beat the 2 Patagonias 3-2 at the pool table. Miss you and love y'all. Joel
