Well we are down two more shoes. The boys were not careful last night and left their flip flops out. Paul is down a flip flop and Seth is down a sandal. They were both pissed. They were both cussing the mongrul dog that took their shoes.
Brian came today. Brian is the gardener. We shared with Brian how we are down two more shoes with a total of 4 shoes missing that the dogs took. Brian took a walk and started looking for the shoes. About a half hour later he came back with two shoes. One was the match to Seth’s sandal. The other was a lady shoe that belonged to none of us. Apparently this dog takes shoes and clothes a lot.
Brian went back and looked again. He came back with A shoe of Janice’s. He also found the match to Paul’s flip flop.
Brian became an instant LEGEND! Not only did they share a beer with him, Brian got a nice bottle of expensive rum as a thank you gift. Brian then shared a few things with us about his upbringing, how long he has been working for the family that owns this house etc.
He showed us where we could pick bananas from the tree out back. He also shared that the holes in the yard are made by crabs. They often will try to catch them after dark. If they are successful, they boil and eat the crab.
We hung out at the pool for the majority of the day. We had some good tunes blasting and adult beverages. Our vacation is winding down quickly. Occasionally one of us would take and hide the other person’s shoe to make them think a dog got it.
We also met Anna today. Anna is the cleaning lady and chef. Anna is coming tomorrow to make us an authentic St. Lucian meal. She was so nice.
Our plan for tomorrow is perhaps a short walk to the beach.
If you can find it at a liquor store, this rum is quite tasty!
