Saturday 17th May 2013

Today we had a day off, we decided to go to the other side of the island, and just spend a day hanging out and looking at touristy things.

This place is called Dockyard, and it's where the cruise ships come in.

Of cause there was one there as well, so a lot of people around, but we walked around and enjoyed all the little shops and stuff, watched guys blowing glass and turning them into bowls and things, stopped at a pottery studio, and seen the most amazing pottery, they had a whole table setting set up from cups plates to dishes, it was amazing, I so wanted to buy some, but yeah not real good for a boat.

We had lunch in a little cafe, and then caught a bus back to Hamilton to hunt out a few grocery stores, we are trying to find some local honey.

We had a taste of it the other night , it's is so nice very soft taste with a hint of lavender and mild, we were told any supermarket sells it, so after the third one we were told that nowhere on the island has it at the moment, as the bees have certain seasons and now was not the right one, oh well we were major disappointed, but not much you can do.

We finally made it back to the boat and are once again settled in for the night.

Well tomorrow is another day.
