Friends from home......

Since our last post we've been very busy, the Turners and the Twiggs, both friends from Painswick have visited Tobago. It's been an action packed few weeks with beach BBQ's, snorkelling, fishing, rainforest exploration, kayaking, pretty exhausting really!
Yummy fish sandwiches

We woke one morning to the sight of a black tip shark lying on the back deck, Dave had been night fishing and had rather a surprise catch!! He cut it into steaks and we enjoyed it for lunch with some fresh bread rolls made by Steve.



The boys disappeared very early one morning for a fishing trip with our good friend Milton. Three hours later they returned with three big tuna and pretty unsettled stomachs !




The visibility of the water changes daily, depending on the flow off from the Orinico river but we have been lucky recently and had some great snorkelling.

  2. What great photo's! The shark in a roll sounds yummy. So pleased you are having such a great time. You will need to bottle up the feelings to save for when you get home! Lots of love. V, D and H x
