Fantastic fresh seared Tuna sandwiches...and of course...ice cold Banks beer. Drank one for you @doghog my friend! 😋 Then a big shopping spree at popular local grocery to pick up some Q-tips...did not pack enough, and the ship won't let me teleport home any longer. 😄 Isn't Rolli's across from the ocean side walk at a place called Pelican Place (I think that's the name of the area)? I know we've seen that Bar and Grill walking into Bridgetown. 🍻 Edited December 20, 2023 by doghog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had some from home, but simply forgot to bring a big enough bag of them. Edited December 20, 2023 by island lady 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kills us, we've had the taxi drivers honk and yell out at us asking if we want a island tour just before entering the security shack on our way back to the ship. 😂 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our (her) bill was $3,600.00 after our obc and refunds from a missed port (about $500.00). I say her bill because I broke even as I spent about 250, overall and my share of the obc covered my portion. Neither of us drank or bought anything onboard. It was all spa...

Have you walked thru the traffic tunnel to get to the downtown area and harbor? It is a thrilling adventure. I think Kathy walks the entire length of the tunnel with her eyes closed and screaming until we reach the other side, safely. 🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course smells bad. 😝 We usually walk up the stairs to the fort for a view, then down to the harbor on the other side, but may skip that this time due to "been there done that" too many times...and even worse, the self appointed "tour guides" that won't leave you alone. I will be more firm in my "no thank you" this time, but Bucky is always a softie. He said he won't fall for it this time. So tunnel it is, then onto Wharf avenue to walk down to another favorite restaurant "Sails" which hangs right over the water. Great food, fantastic view, and good wine list! Pictures to follow. Right now...it is "Hello Grenada" as we are pulling into port in an hour. 🙂 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted December 21, 2023 Author #774 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Forgot to mention we attended a great show last night, very talented young violinist that joined the ship in Barbados, David Klinkenberg. He received several standing ovations. One of the cutest things was when he invited young 13? year old boy up to play piano, while he accompanied him on the violin...also standing ovation. They were great! The young man had stood next to me along the railing a few nights ago when we watched the Arubian dancers on the pool deck. Very polite and quiet. He is such a gifted young pianist! No pictures, I find bright screens on I pads and phone cameras during a show disruptive. Had two pax in front of me doing that, too bright of a glare...annoying. Then worse than that, young couple towards the end of the show down in front, started letting their rowdy and loud 3 young children run wild along the stage front floor, and even climbing the stage stairs and hand rail. Parents did nothing to control them. Could hear them above the violinist and the orchestra. Real shame. Please parents...control your children...and actually BE a parent. OK...off my soap box now. 😕 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked down to it and on to the deck to soot some video looking out and around the harbor. I like the West Indies beer. 🍺 Edited December 21, 2023 by doghog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
