There is Beauty in the World

All I want to do is float around in beautiful turquoise waters and melt into warm pink sand. And when I can't, it drives me to eat and drink. Food and wine are wonderful things. But life at the beach is better. This blog is about my favourite things: travel, food & wine. I wish I was made of money so I could have more of my favourite things.

    Video starring the coconut, in a tropical island adventure on the gorgeous island of Eleuthera.  The beaches and the people are beautiful.  The coconut?  He’ll be ok :)

  • Eleuthera, Bahamas - filmed only with the iPhone 4S.  My favourite island…

    Music: Marrianne, by the legendary Dr. Seabreeze

  • WIND BENEATH MY WINGS.  A beautiful melody, sung by local legend Dr. Seabreeze of the island of Eleuthera.  [Buy the CD ‘The Doctor is In” from Norma’s in Governor’s Harbour, Pam’s Island Made Shop in Gregorytown, or from the Doc’s “office” at Ronnie’s Hi-D-Way].  This is an excellent CD, and the Seabreeze is a wonderful person.

  • DRIFTWOOD AND SEAGLASS ART GALLERY, Governor’s Harbour, Eleuthera.  Located on a quiet side street, next to the Governor’s Harbour Bakery, is a quaint little gem of a gallery. Enter through the white picket gates, manoeuvre through a cute little garden where roosters roam, and into a welcoming entrance to the store.  Marti Fernander and D. Allen are the artists that showcase their artwork made from found beach treasures, such as driftwood, sea glass, and shells.  Originally from California, Marti has travelled the world, but calls the stunning island of Eleuthera her home.  I had the pleasure of meeting this fine artist, who is inspired by the beauty that surrounds her everyday.  These gorgeous one-of-a-kind works of art start at only $5.  This lovely gallery is truly worth seeking out.

  • HAUNTED HOUSE, Harbour Island, Bahamas.  Nestled by the Harbour Island Marina and AcquaPazza (a fabulous restaurant by the way), are the remains of a once sprawling mansion that belonged to a wealthy family.  Legend has it that the table was set for dinner, when the entire family vanished.  Decades later, a wealthy couple purchased the house.  The wife entered the house and left shortly after, refusing to step foot back in it.  In the 80’s a fire claimed the house.  What remains now are faded pink tumbled walls, making it the perfect backdrop for wedding photos during the day, and beautiful candlelit soirees in the evening…if you don’t mind the spooky sounds whispering around you…

  • CLIPPER IMPORTS at ROSE MANOR, Eleuthera, Bahamas.  Shopping in the island’s capital, Governor’s Harbour,  just became a whole lot more fun.  Located half-way “up the hill” from the bright yellow Pyfroms liquor store, Rose Manor has re-opened its doors under the new ownership of Clipper Imports.  This adorable boutique is brimming with fantastic finds - all at great prices.

    Eleuthera is just not known for its shopping.  People may challenge that Eleuthera is not about shopping in the first place.  But sometimes, a girl just needs a little fix…a keepsake, that every time she wears or looks at it, she will think of that special little out island in the Bahamas.  Even better if that keepsake comes at a bargain price, which it is does at Rose Manor.

    Enter through the welcoming doors of this homey boutique, and you’ll see racks of colourful sundresses, tables of stunning jewelry, and hutches displaying silver turtles and jewelled candle holders.  The abundance of beautiful merchandise flows down the hallway into two more rooms.  There are Bahamas t-shirts, swim coverups, artwork, keychains and home decor items.  A red and blue sailboat catches my eye.  I pick it up to take a closer look and am delighted to discover that it is only $5!  It has a little oar, and the word “Eleuthera” painted on it.  I smile to myself knowing that I have found my special keepsake to bring home.  My friend has chosen a cute hand-sewn heart ornament for $1 and a Bahamas bag for $10.  We pay and chat for a while with the owner’s sister-in-law, Monique, and learn that she also teaches yoga, meditation and ball exercise.  We set off merrily on our way, happy that there is something fun to do when it rains in Eleuthera.
