Back In The Lil Red House.....Eleuthera, Bahamas

Give your stress wings and let it fly away.

We are once again in Eleuthera, our home away from home.  It has been a little over two months since we have been to our Lil Red House.  Needless to say we were a bit nervous thinking we would be walking into a lot of work that needed to be done.......surprise it was in almost perfect condition.

We left home and as soon as we were in the plane Arvid slept...he claims he never sleeps on a plane but, I have the evidence......

The flight was great, next thing we did was to go and collect our car.....bummer we had a flat tire...not a problem we have our own emergency pump in the car so we fixed that withing minutes...



Got to our home and was delighted all at once by the sounds of the waves and the total silence.....Sleeping the first night was just blissful not a sound to be heard...no sirens, no blasting horns, dogs barking....nothing like you would find in a big city. 

For a while this is our Paradise and we are enjoying it.
The first night we did nothing just relaxed, cleaned a bit and watched some TV......totally peaceful.  The best thing is that the telephone NEVER rang....Arvid was soooooo.......happy.

Today we did some yard work...always fun to do out here but, you'd never catch me doing it back in Fort Lauderdale.  We are not yard people.  We are city people but for some reason when here we really enjoy it.  I pulled weeds and Arvid used the weed wacker......

To end the day we decided to go to one of our favorite spots....Sky Beach Club.  I did not have my usual Pina Colada.  Today it was Rum Punch and boy was it good...before I knew what was going on my glass was empty.....

We are so very happy here...the only one missing is Brutus.  He did not come on this trip because it was short and we do not want to stress him out too much....and the truth is that is paperwork was expired.  I did not want to run the risk of him being deported.....

We are enjoying ourselves very much here and loving every moment......

until next time...
