Tortola Revisited

Took the Fast Ferry to the West End of Tortola yesterday to see how it would work out seeing the Island by renting our own car rather than hiring a taxi driver to supposedly show us around like we did last time...

We rented a Suzuki from Denzil Cline for $55 and went all the way to the East End of the Island and back. First stop was Callwood Rum Distillery...

got a little tutorial on their various Rums...from youngest to oldest etc...

bought a bottle of the Spiced for $20 and hit the road...

if you are ever in Tortola during a full moon, you MUST go to Bomba's Shack for their Full Moon Party...

we went many moons ago. The Mr. reminded me we did Mushrooms there and I do recall eating some dried brown things out of a little baggie, but they didnt affect me. People have such a great time, they take off their undies to leave as decoration...

saw so many Pelicans...

as well as Goats...

had lunch at Islands Beach Bar...

situated at the seemingly lovely Sugar Mill Hotel...

fantastic view...

another Pelican posed right in front of us...

had to get a Painkiller, it was very well made...

my Greek Salad without the feta was excellent...

as was the Hummus and Pita that came with it...

all in all, a successful day....

Lots more of life back on St. Thomas still to come. Bye for now.
