Friday in Coral Bay

[Randy in MD]

The fog leftover from yesterday evening has subsided. Thankful for strong coffee. Our afternoon at Honeymoon Beach yesterday could not have been more perfect. Blue skies, warm water, and NOBODY else on the beach - all afternoon. The snorkeling was superb and I spotted 2 eels swimming amongst the coral. Think I got some pretty good pictures of the second one. We were invited to some friends Coral Bay home for dinner last evening and enjoyed some fine wine and great conversation along with the tenderloin and accompaniments. We won't forget the homemade raspberry cheese cake anytime soon... I observed a ritual this morning that I had merely heard on other mornings as I caught a glimpse of the schoolbus dropping off the childern at the Guy Benjamin School. Once off the bus, the children waved and chanted to the bus as it pulled away. What were they chanting? It sounded like "Donkey Bus!", and it probably was. We're headed to some North Shore Beach this afternoon, just not sure which one yet. It's very humid, and the air is fairly still. Waiting for Tropical Storm Jorge to arrive this evening...

I hear that TS Jorge might just become "the mother of all hurricanes!" Look out St. John! Thanks for the report Randy, and send some cheesecake this way.

Very nice real time report. BTW Randy, the rains from Hanna are arriving in MD tomorrow morning; hopefully your STJ weather will be much better.

Hey Randy

We were at Honeymoon today (neice from England and I) but bummer - there were 2 other couples

I saw a great eel there last week - fabulous

Hope to see you on a beach (where will you be (if you know) this weekend) but I leave for the States Monday and my neice returns to England then as well
