Photo Trip Review - Reflection TA

[Lisah101]

My husband checking out the local pastries - in hindsight, we should have stopped here and bought a few as it was a long time to lunch and I liked the look of these better than the crowded market.

I can't remember if this was called a Dragon Tree or a Dragon Fruit Tree

I love the street photos - maybe a little too much

Bread Delivery - just tied up in a bag and left at the door of the restaurant early in the morning

I loved the colors of some of the buildings

After a walk through town and a quick stop at a market where I didn't get any photos, we got back in the van and drove to the other side of the island.

I wish I could remember the name of the town, but the van stopped and let us out to walk into a small village where we saw the very very very very old tree.

And the very old tree. Next time I think I need to take a journal so I can remember these things - like how old this tree really is.

On this side of the island, the beaches were very rocky but they managed to carve out places to enjoy the sun and water.

We stopped for lunch and although we just shared a quick sandwich, we did spend time trying to figure out what to have for dessert.

Final choice

I tried to capture the name of the restaurant but I was already as far back as I could get, I would recommend it though - some great local foods.

Some of the others in our group did try the local favorites and of course I took photos.

Better photo of the restaurant and explains why I couldn't back up any further to get a better picture. I had no idea what we were standing on until we walked down and around the street. I thought we were standing on the edge of a small cliff, not a man made overhang sticking out the side of a cliff!

Even though I say I'm not much of a shopper - I just loved this store and did buy a few more scarves for my collection.

 

[Lisah101]

We walked around a bit on our own before meeting the van to ride back to the port - it was a great day, not very long but just long enough.

 

Back in the room my laundry finally caught up with me. The day before was the laundry bag challenge but being a bit unfocused I wrote down the wrong room number. Gratefully they figured it out and delivered my laundry.

This was also the day we were invited to the helipad for sail-away so we made our way as directed. They served mimosas which I asked DH to hold mine so I could take his photo.
