We got in to Bequia around dinner-time. Earlier that morning I stumped captain Matt with the question "does Mac's pizza deliver to the ship?" I had the whole ship rocking in laughter but it was a honest question! Apparently they didn't so we went ashore to enjoy some of the best darn pizza on Bequia at Mac's. Right as the pizza was set in front of me Clunk! I fell asleep right in my pizza. We boxed up the best darn pizza with the imprint of my face on it and headed back to the ship. The next morning it was kind of raining but we went to model boat builder shops and to a street festival. After that we went back to the ship for lunch and to get ready for our trip to Moonhole on the southern point of the island. The
trip to Moonhole wasn't a paved road. Most of the way we were bouncing
around and watching out for chickens on the road. When we got there
it started to rain again but we still had fun. Moonhole
is a private house made entirely of rock and into the hillside. But
Moonhole is also a sea side arch that during some parts of the year
the moon can be seen through it.The original house was right under the
arch but a rock fell from the bottom of the arch and fell through the
house so they moved up the hill 100 or so feet. You can see the ocean
360 degrees around you. Frigate birds hover around you and the ocean
breeze hits you in the face and you know this is bliss. We stopped at
the open kitchen and the adults had rum punch and I had fresh limeade.
I go to feed the giant turtles who lived there. Our time finally came
to an end like all good things do but when I left there I had a new
definition of bliss. |
