What Are You Waiting For?

Happy New Year! There's something in the air here at the moment, Dominica is busy busy busy it seems and there are a lot of new faces and a lot of 'business' being discussed on the streets.... Land is selling very fast - plots of one acre and less in particular and also at the other end of the scale enormous 30 acre plots for developments, whatever they are. Possibly interesting crop growing....

Amidst all this, new places are springing up - great little restaurants, at last, yay, including The Talipot in Roseau and Romance Cafe right on the beach and Le Bistro here in town too. Screw is even telling me he's building a waterpark, yes a waterpark...it won't be like swimming with the pink dolphins at the Atlantis in Dubai but I'm sure it will have its own unique selling point.

Mermaid's Secret is officially open now too - check out their website and even better they have their own bar, yay again! Really nice accommodation is a little harder to find here but bit by bit the choice is increasing and it's great to experience this.

Think undiscovered Dominica may be running out of time....IKEA hurry up please.

Living the dream....on film.....eek!





Our story so far. Huge thanks to Flip Camera (I really really really want one) and Chris & Sharon for producing and directing this and we are getting very excited about our upcoming big screen production. Would like Botox & Boobs first mind. Maybe we'll be filmed all misty screened like Jane Seymour in Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman....well, maybe just I will....

Cap Maison to Screws


So, last week I was in St Lucia and was lucky enough to visit Cap Maison - google it - it is FAB, amazing and wonderful. The sunbeds are as thick as a Tempur mattress and each apartment has its own pool. This week I am back in Dominica and enjoying the hot pools at Screws. So flitting between one luxurious experience to another. Both totally unique but both totally different. Where in the Caribbean would you really like to be?
