Our guests

Image
Our guests this week are Courtney Kavcsak and her husband to be Eric Cohen.  Courtney is Chuck's youngest daughter and a frequent guest at the beach house.

Anagada

Image
We are in lovely Anagada, the northern most island in the BVIs.  This is where all the lobster is harvested.  Unlike the other islands in the BVIs which are tall volcanic islands, this one is a lime and coral low lying mass just packed with coral heads. Anagada lobsters We caught a king mackerel  on the way to Anagada.  A shark took its tail off.

The original Willy T

It seems we stumbled upon the original Willy T washed ashore at Norman's Cay.  

The Infamous Willy T

The infamous Willy T Chuck and Lynn posing with the Chinese monkey, One Hung Low I had heard of the Willy T many years ago and again when my friend Flavio reminded me of it.  The boat, anchored in a cove of Peter Island, or at least the original one was there.  The original Willy T was dragged out of its mooring and ran up on a beach in the last hurricane.  The new Willy T is shown above and has been open for just a month.  It is infamous because as the night wears on and the "Pain Killer" rum drinks get swizzled down the crowd cheers on any one who will strip naked and dive off the high end of the back of the boat.  We were in bed by 9:30 so I can not give a first hand report.   Chuck is MAKK's favorite cousin and Lynn is his wife.  We have been close to them for many years and may fun times.  We are going to their daughter's (Courtney) wedding mid August in Raleigh, NC.

My Fantasy Come True - Almost

Image
I finally got to experience my fantasy, that is me with three lovely women on a boat on a remote island.  However in my fantasy both the women and me were a lot younger.  Still it has been a wonderful time with lovely people that I adore.  We all play bridge in the evenings and drink fine wine and eat Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia ice cream.  Life is good and best when shared with close friends.
