Yesterday there were three cruise-ships "parked" half a mile out of the harbor, waiting for their passengers to return. The beach was full of tourists, sipping at their (first) cocktail of the day even though it was still morning. In the other hand most of them are holding a smartphone or a camera, or even worse a stick to make one of the numerous selfies that later on will be posted on Facebook, Instagram or both.
The water-sport clubs are popular and people on jet-ski's and banana-boats are cheerful and at high speed crossing the bay. Further down the beach, a bride and groom with family ( I assume the young lady dressed in white, with white flowers both in her hand and in her hair to be a bride) are getting on board of a sailboat leaving me with the question whether they will marry or just having lunch while enjoying a boat-trip around the island.
I was asked to take a picture of a couple American tourists who were making a nice long stroll on the beach, honoring the name 'seven mile beach'. They tell me that they got on board in Galveston, Texas; were in Mexico yesterday and are heading for Jamaica next.
And I was thinking my life has been a roller-coaster the past months!
