Day 87. I fly home today!

Well, it's 2.45am!   I can't sleep.  I am sat on the balcony writing this.   I am deafened by the sound of crickets, the sky full of stars and the Caribbean Sea rolling onto the beach!  Who would want to leave!

Part of me is so excited to be seeing my family, and part of me doesn't want this to end - as they say '   ' All good  things must come to an end '. I am finishing off the champagne and eating up the treats from The Cafe' de Paris! ( think this is new Leah ).  Clive's sugar was really high when he went to the doctor today - so that's my excuse to eat them!

I really should try to sleep, but I'm sure the nights at home will not be balmy enough to sit outside!

"Goodnight".

I still awoke early, even though I only managed to sleep for a couple of hours.  We grab our towels and head to the beach.  We put our towels on our loungers - seemed to have had the same two all week!  Off we go to Stewfish for breakfast.  Seymour sent us peanut porridge to eat!  We shared a bowl - not very keen but he meant well!  Clive has Brown Fish Stew with Festival. (fried dumplings) I had eggs Benedict - delicious!  I love sitting there watching the sea and people on the beach.

We go and lay on the loungers for a while.  I then go to get ready and send my cases down for the bus this afternoon. I manage to get almost everything in my case!  That's amazing! I am being collected at 3pm.

It's now 2pm.  This could be my last blog!!  I just want to say "Thank-you"  to my family.  They have supported me throughout my trip.  I know this trip sounded crazy to most people!  I just want to say to you all. -  'It's never too late' !  Live your life, believe in your dreams,  BUT most of all,  take action.  Nothing can happen if we just sit and wait - never give up!

Looking back on these 89 days -   51 days in Ft Lauderdale, 3 in Vancouver, 28 on the cruise ship and finally 7 days in Jamaica!  

A TRIP OF A LIFETIME!        Goodbye. X
