Miss Bossy Pants here at the helm!! We had the best day ever today (at least I did)!! No, not because Wolfgang departed for a few days. We already miss him, his corny humor & good natured personality!! For starters, because we are in Port Vila, Andrew was able to get me onto wifi. I had a chance to check emails & touch base with a few dear loved ones. After Sue & Andrew waited patiently for me to peck at the keyboard we headed off to shore.
As usual I was hungry again, so we got some good food then grabbed a bus to Mele bay & splurged on a tourist attraction, the waterfalls!! It was absolutely gorgeous, breathtakingly beautiful & well worth the entrance fee!! I swam more today than I have in the past 3wks. Water temperature was delightful & being freshwater there was no chance of jellyfish or anything else that could bite my bum! It was about a 30min hike up to the falls along the creek with refreshing swim holes, amazing flora & not too many tourists on a Monday. On the hike down we took a side trail & saw some beautiful views of Mele Bay.
Back in Port Vila Sue & Andrew stopped for cool milkshakes while Cindy looked for the perfect t-shirt for her sweet Beau who she misses along with her other DF favorites. The plan was to meet at the fruit market, Cindy waited over an hour then decided to walk to the dinghy dock where she found Sue looking as beautiful as ever after a refreshing shower. A few moments later Andrew appeared after getting a thai massage. They thought that’s where I had disappeared to as that was my plan today. They both encouraged me to go indulge myself…..AND I’m so glad I did!! Got a fabulous authentic Thai massage, was very strong & hit all the right pressure points. I was moaning in the perfect combination of pleasure & pain, the bruises will be well worth it!! Afterwards I took a long hot shower at the marina & hopped on a dinghy with some friendly folks, saving Andrew the trip back to pick me up.
We had a delicious dinner, I had 2 shots of whiskey & was pretty tipsy, Sue & Andrew just kept laughing at me…..so what’s new?? Of course I moaned & groaned over dinner, they find my noises & atrocious table manners very endearing (well Sue says amusing)!!
