Well… All good things must come to an end. Today was our last full day in Tobago. Nothing was booked so we spent time relaxing by the pool, started packing our bags and just generally lazed about. We went out for breakfast at the Colours restaurant. While we were out Ben bought a mini steel […]

Rum Punch and Island Tour
The day had potential for disaster when we were picked up in a wreck of a car that couldn’t make it over the speed bumps, without leaving some of its transmission behind. We were then taken to a Mangrove swamp on the edge of Ban Accord Lagoon. We met our fellow passengers, a German Couple, […]
Glass Bottom Boat Tour
Today was supposed to be a split event day. Bruce and Ben were booked on a days diving, with Nicki and Dan off for a glass bottom boat tour. However Ben woke up with aching ears, which meant he couldn’t go diving. Change of plan – we all went on the glass bottom boat tour. […]
Pool and relaxing
A very quiet day for everybody today. Ben was feeling a bit bunged up, and stayed in the Villa while everybody else went to the House of Pancakes for breakfast. After a big feed we wandered around Crown Point trying to find the Cafe Coco to book out evening meal. […]
Tobago Eco Tour
Well…. This was the rescheduled Rain Forest Walk. As it turned out we didn’t do the rain forest walk we did the eco tour which involved trekking up a very rocky and occasionally very slippery river. The halfway point was a waterfall with pool as shown above. The guide […]
Yet another rest day….
Another rest day… Not to bad, a big fat breakfast in the House of Pancakes. Really good pancakes with bacon, eggs and fruit, washed down with a very nice coffee. That breakfast saw us through until well after lunch. After the House of Pancakes we went to Store Bay, […]
Another Rest Day
Due to heavy rain our trip to the rain forest was postponed until Saturday. So, we spent the day chilling in the pool, eating and drinking. Highlight of the day was a trip to Trinbago’s Curry House for Rotis. Nicki had shrimp, Dan had beef. Bruce and Ben played safe by having goat. We are […]
Rest Day
Very quiet day. Bruce and Ben did a bank run to cash some travellers cheques. Some relaxing by the pool, and cocktails in Dillon’s. […]
The Island Tour
Well, a whole day out of the villa touring the Island of Tobago with Neil the tour guide and a couple from Jamaica. The journey started from the villa, via Scarborough and up to Mount Dillon where there were spectacular views of the Caribbean coast line. From there to […]
August the 1st….
Well, a rest day today. Bruce and Daniel went and did another big shop with Geewan the taxi driver. Plenty of time for the pool and no visitors as it is a public holiday (Emancipation Day). The highlight of the day was a meal in Dillon’s Fish Restaurant. Nicki […]
