Great - keep em' coming?

Did you hear the one about the morons that decided to hike to Ram Head in mid-October during the middle of the day?

No?

Then I guess you missed our trip report from last year... :oops:
Come see us!

Hey Augie, there's a tree on Blue Cobblestone Beach that is great to sit under when you have heat stroke. I beleive that it IS the shade on that walk.

Cheers, RickG

I am really enjoying these reports. Could you just continue them for another 53 days, please?

Excellent reports and photos! I'm enjoying them tremendously. Your friend the Accountant is very similar to my friend Suzi (they even look alike -it's eery). She fell going up the stars to our villa but then patted herself on the head as she was taught to do by a snorkeling instructor the day before to signal that she was okay.

Can't wait for the Lion in Da Sun trip. I hope Josh was your Captain -he is the best!

I am really enjoying your trip report!

I can relate to your friend, I could absolutely see myself taking a header off the deck like that. I wouldn't even need a cocktail to accomplish it!

Looking forward to your next shark story. :shock:
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

Great report so far, and I can relate to the shark sightings. My son and I had a VERY close encounter with a not-nurse shark at Waterlemon 2 years ago, and I had a slight panic attack! He was cool as a cucumber but I freaked out, not really the response you're supposed to have. Can't wait for the next installment!

Really enjoying your trip report!! We were there at the same time as you and your crew. You do look familiar too! Must have seen you at the beach somewhere.

Looking forward to the next installment. Where is it anyway? Hurry, hurry! I need some laughs on this rainy, dreary day here. :)

Just caught myself up with your TR and enjoying it VERY much!
Sounds like you all had a fantastic time and I bet you left wondering about when your next visit will be 8)

Thanks so much for sharing and love the beautiful photos that bring me "there" in my mind!

Lil' more than 4 months to go :shock:
and you're TR is sparking that "wanna get there NOW" feeling...

Enjoy,
Kathy

I love your writing style!! This is the first trip report I have read in a while and I wasn't disappointed.

We are staying on the Salt Pond end this time and I am sure we will make our way to the pond and I don't want to see your shark friend!! I might have to snorkel with my eyes shut!!

Love you statue at drunk beach!
