Valentines Day Bash

The skies stopped their downpour long enough for Capt Paul and I to walk to the palapa that the Fantasy Island Resort (many thanks to them for their hospitality to all of us cruisers!) had allowed us to use for the Valentines Day event.Suzie and John (Caberet) did all the planning and organizing. John was even the master chief of all of the food with gumbo being the main course! There were some wonderful pastries too...not sure of the name of the woman who baked those...but again Fantasy Island Resort allowed her to bake in their oven since the palapa oven was not functional...and they were delicious! After dinner Suzie began the music in earnest...With a few games...make sure your computer volume is turned up for the videos...


Guess who won the musical chairs? and just plain good fun being had by all! Of course...we will see how many of the videos that I took I will be able to upload...


because really the great fun cannot be captured in just a picture. Although I tried that too!


The REALLY GOOD videos (of course REALLY GOOD in this case is in the eye of the video taker...not necessarily the people being videoed) I will save for u-tube...another day!


All in all...it was a wonderful Valentines Day (thank you Capt Paul...love you) and a wonderful Valentines celebration. Oh, by the way Travis (a local outboard engine mechanic) came by today...yes, Hugo is a usable dingy again (without having to be towed)...Herbie now runs...it was more than "dirty fuel...water in the fuel"...go figure. I'm pretty sure Capt Paul will blog again soon...and you'll probably even get to find out how much it cost!! Ha ha ha!
