Another sunset over Sopers Hole
Not much has changed since yesterday! I am still sewing and my hands are hurting quite a bit. I think tomorrow morning I am on the home stretch on the sewing as we are both heartily sick of trampolines!
One thing I have noticed, is the amount of building and work that has gone down here on Frenchmans Cay right on the waterfront of villas. Every time I turn around there seems to be another Villa with a dock built!
The sunset is very pretty tonight though here in Sopers, this is looking down the channel
and this is looking over at Steele Point!

Lisa checking in from a cold UK!
I must admit I have been very bad at blogging, but I have been busy!
A quick summary should bring you up to speed........We loved our vacation in Belize and didn't want to leave, it was quite a busy time though! After the dive liveaboard we went on to a sand castle called Cay Caulker, we rented a cute place for the week and travelled the island on push bikes, no cars on the island just golf carts and no pictures of me on a push bike either! One of my high lights was the discovery of blue margaritas!
While on the sand castle, suprisingly, we did a lot more diving and saw some special things (Rich has a million pictures) here we are in case you forgot what we look like already! This is the right way up!
We also went on a sail and snorkeling trip and got to swim with a manatee, that was one of the highlights of the holiday for me!
We saw a new type of booby bird, a red footed one
There were lots of dogs every where, which I loved, heres a random cute one!
We saw a lot of sharks in Belize, but also eagle rays
Richs favorites, blennys (we have a lot of pictures of those)
One of my favorite things that we didn't have in the BVI, nudibranchs
but we had plenty of these, Christmas tree worms
All the diving and blue margaritas came to a rude stop much to my horror and it was time to fly home before I knew it! When we landed in the UK it was 50 degrees, me and Rich looked at each other in horror, but big suprise the sun was out! In 5 days we did the length and breadth of the UK visiting family, I was looking for my clothes, I know when I left England I had some, where they went I have no idea and in the stores the clothes they are selling for the winter are less substantial than my summer clothes! oh well.
So me and Rich are both back in school now, I am cooking and Rich is doing boat stuff, I am really enjoying the cooking, Promenade certainly well prepared me skill wise for the course and its all I have to do, no popping off to dive or anything, so its not as fun! But I am learning a lot, much to Richs delight I am sure!
