Finally Here....ELEUTHERA!!

The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak

We are in Eleuthera and for that we could not be happier just look at us and I believe you will all understand what I mean when I say this is truly our haven from everything....

Our day began like most of our days ....one phone call after another.  It got to the point where Arvid was just ready to rip the phones off and throw them all away...here in Eleuthera we notice the difference as soon as we step into our Lil Red.....it's QUIET!!! 
The phones have not rung once...the only time we are on the phone is when and if we decide to make a call...right now I am enjoying it all...
This is Brutus' 4th trip to the island and I will say he does really good in the plane.  We do give him some calming drops just to relax him....here he is in his little carrier being soooo...good.
When we arrived at the airport in Fort Lauderdale no one noticed Brutus...he went through without being checked.  OK with us.  Once in the plane he was very scared.  Arvid had him on his lap the entire trip just talking to him softly while I tried to give him water with a little syringe....he was so good.....never cried just shook a bit.
We got to Eleuthera....guess what???  customs did not even see the little dude....we walked right out with him.  Of course we have all the appropriate paperwork but if they did not ask I did not give.....

Brutus is now settled in & relaxing in his condo....we have even padded the door in his bedroom so that when he scratches at night he does not hurt his paws.....the things we do for this kitty...
Tomorrow promises be another interesting day.  When in the island you can never really tell what will happen...people here are laid back and take it very easy.....When we are here we switch to Island Mode and love every minute of it.....sometimes it is just the simple things in life that makes us the happiest.....
Simplicity is making the journey of this life with just baggage enough
