A Fond Farewell to Tortugal
Marina, Fronteras, Guatemala
The marina
tree
Thank you to Daphne and Mike for
owning and running such a beautifully placed marina, thank you for the care you
take not to negatively impact this natural piece of jungle and the well deserved
trust you put in your fabulous team.
A Massive
‘Thank You’ to
Jefe – you have been our surrogate
dog, always making such a fuss of us and going nuts when we have returned from
our At-Ventures.
Byron, Angel, Ricardo for keeping
Beez Neez’ hull clean, and taking care of her when we were away on our trips
away. Thank You.
Dora for all your office work. Thank
You.
Leonel and Victor for guarding Beez
Neez and ensuring her safety and well-being. Thank You
Lidia, Marlene, Gladis and Alex for
being such patient waitresses and waiter especially when all we could say was
“hello” and “thank you”. Thank You All.
Mary, Angela, Blanca, Martha for all
the meals you cooked for us when it was Bear’s turn once a week, film nights and
the odd times we needed your fine cocktails. Thank you for so beautifully
preparing ‘Pepe’s Salad Mandarina – much modified – sin cilantro, sin ajo, sin
cebolla, sin jengibre, con pollo. Thank You.
Camila and Gaby for the odd times I
needed ‘big’ stuff washed and folded. Thank you.
Manuel for
overseeing everything and being a fantastic and tolerant manager. Thank
You.
Tortugal – our
final nighttime look
Last but not least to Rhum and later
Jonas for becoming such good friends. We wish you all the very best with Bad
Idea and will read your blogs with interest. See Y’all Down the Road.
Safe Winds and Following
Seas.
Rhum, I’ll pay the thirty pence I owe
you when I see you in the Pacific.
That’s a promise. Pepe doesn’t say that word very often as it’s too important to her.
We wish every good fortune
for the future of these hard-working, gentle, caring, honest and very decent
people.
A Blessed Christmas and a
Very Happy New Ears
ALL IN ALL WE WILL MISS THIS
SAFE HAVEN
BUT THE PACIFIC
CALLS |
