Up with the roosters! We grab a quick caffeine boost, toast and banana, then head off to Soper’s Hole to set up the ‘studio’ at the Jolly Roger for Talkin’ Tourism.
Lou is ready for us and Gary begins putting the tables and equipment together. Soon Candace and Malcolm show up; next Captain Jim of the Blue Moon; then Cheryl and her granddaughter Charlie, and during the first half of the show, we spot Captain Rick and Kim aboard the Sophisticated Lady arriving into Soper’s after a couple of nights at Jost van Dyke.
After a few telephone line hiccups, the show is rolling. Malcolm is a great co-host and he and Gary are enjoying the back and forth banter. Candace shoots a few photos for Malcolm’s “ego-book” and I gather some b-roll and photos for the radio show’s blog.
Gary and Malcolm manage to cover land-based and water-based adventures, history, folklore, pirate tales, accommodations, and more. Lou, Cheryl, Captain Rick and Captain Jim provide details on sailing, dining, accommodations, and places not to miss.

After the show, we enjoy ‘refreshments’ and some good laughs. Malcolm really stirs up the pot with the staff at the Jolly Roger. Thank you Lou for your wonderful hospitality! Captain Jim, hope you had a nice nap.
Afterwards we head over to Island Time at Nanny Cay to explore renting a boat. We talk to a couple just returning their 26’ Contender, which they had for several days. They were adventurous and had hit all the hot spots, including Saba. At their recommendation, we reserve the 26-footer for Monday to do some water-based exploring on our own.
Malcolm had invited us to stop in on our way back over to Cane Garden Bay, so we take him up on the offer. What a beautiful view he and Candace have! And, a beautiful white deserted beach right in front of their villa. We enjoy some great conversation and a few Red Stripes (thanks Malcolm!) then take off for Bobby’s in Cane Garden Bay for some light provisions. We find everything we need and even things we don’t need, then head back to Casa Allamanda for pool time.

Tonight our dinner menu consists of a lemon roasted chicken, fresh broccoli, and garlic mashed potatoes, followed by the DVD Babble, which we’ll have to finish tomorrow….too sleepy to see the end. All this fresh air, rum, fun and laughter is hard work.
