Routine Island Dream



I have fallen in to a new group of friends and a somewhat normal routine. I am close friends with Kelley Mae. She works at Dive Safaris, which is our main competitor so, its pretty funny. We will be out after work, both with out work shirts on, and people give us the strangest looks. We do crazy things and have a lot of fun together. Alex is a carpenter for the ships but an all around handyman kinda guy. He is an incredibly talented musician when it comes to just about any instrument. Dominique works with the beach horse riding for the tourists in Cay Bay and her and Alex have a parrot named DC who I love. Jammie is another friend and he works for Alex. Kelley’s little sister, Karie, has recently come to the island as well so its out little group that travels around together. It’s pretty funny doing introductions now “Hi I’m Cayley, this is Kelley and this is Karie. Now repeat that ten times fast!”


Our group is pretty active. We sea kayak a couple evenings a week and adventure to the French side to go surfing most Sundays. We hang out on the beach by LaBamba most nights and have a big bonfire and bring out the guitars and jembay drum. DC, the parrot, will sit on our shoulders as Dom spins her fire balls to the beat of whatever we happen to be playing. We've often had tourists come walking by and ask to take our picture or be in a picture with us...I guess we look like a bunch of island rug rats! :) The ocean tickles our toes as the moon rises and I often find myself taking deep breaths and feeling how happy I am to be living this life.
