We let our trip tour guide, Steven Morgan, run the show for us this day. We joined in on their shore excursion when we learned they were renting a car and doing their own thing.
The car rental agencies were in a building close to where we got off the ship. It seems that each company likes to keep an eye on their competitors. We noticed that each company's employee had a hand sticking out of the window and the hand was holding a mirror. What an ingenious way for each of them to see how much business the others of them were drumming up from the tourists.
Steven drove us around a bit to see the island and then we went to Loterie Farm to do a zip line obstacle course. Good thing they got some practice with the zip line on the ship!
They got all harnessed in, received their brake (a glove for their right hand) and then headed off to do the course.
Looks like they survived the course and were just a little tired and extremely sweaty from their adventure.
We saw a little bit more of the island on our way to the airport.
Steven is an air traffic controller and he told us there was an airport right next to the beach and people like to go to that beach to watch the planes take off and land because the planes fly so close to the ground.
We checked the arrivals board and were in luck when we noticed a small plane coming in for a landing right then. Steven was right--the airport was right next to the beach, which was right next to the road, which was right next to the airport, and the plane flew over us really close, which was downright cool for someone who loves planes so much to experience. Steven was right pleased with himself.
Glen enjoyed this poster on the other side of the arrivals board. As "luck" would have it--there were TWO TOPLESS WOMEN on the beach as the plane came in and they stood up and turned to get a better view of the plane coming in for a landing.
I'm not sure which show the men enjoyed more...?!?
Looks like we all got the memo to wear blue that evening for dinner.
The high seas were "alive with the Sound of Music" shown on the big screens out under the stars in the aqua theater.
Great movie, great setting and made even greater with an ice cream sundae for Patricia to end our great day.
