The next morning we had a private tour of the island
with Laverne whom I had befriended at the music festival on Bequia. Laverne is
the house manager of a large villa on the island called Taliesin which is owned
by the proprietors of the Welsh whiskey company, Penderyn. She was a lovely
hostess and we enjoyed a 'wee dram' of a limited edition of Penderyn with her
before visiting two more palatial villas named Coccolobo and
Sienna.
A view from Taliesin across to Macaroni
Beach.
On Thursday night we all had a great night out at the
eponymous 'Basil's Bar' where we befriended the band, drank too much and danced
the night away, finally returning to the bosom of Chiscos at about 3am.
The girls returning to Chiscos from shoreside (looking
much less hungover than we felt!).
Our final sail back to Soufriere via Bequia was
lively. The skipper had played again for us in the L'Auberge
restaurant the night before .....
and although he took a bump on the head from the boom
just as we were leaving, the sail was great and thoroughly enjoyed by us
all.
We arrived back in Soufriere about 4pm and had
a super final meal out with Anne, John and Mikaela.
It has been a completely magical
experience!
