I'm writing this from our balcony in St Lucia, overlooking the estuary. We arrived here this afternoon to be greeted by our 'monkey welcoming party' in the gardens below. As we admired the view, the sound of someone running upstairs awakened us to the fact that we were on the top floor and we were very bemused to see a medium-sized monkey leap from above our heads onto a nearby tree... Communal monkey count is now up to 6... I guess afore-mentioned critter could easily leap onto our balcony and into our residence so I imagine not much will be left lying around here for the next few days.
Yesterday we spent some final time with the kids for the moment, it was so hot that they were making the most of the swimming pool, but L&R declined the opportunity to join them. The water in our pool is fairly murky, need I say more?
2 great restaurant recommendations: for Lunch - 'The Pot and Kettle' at Botha's Hill, fantastic views of the Valley of 1000 Hills and extremely colourful salads; for dinner- 'La Strada' in Hillcrest, the best and most authentic Italian Restaurant I've been to this side of Perugia.
