Day One...

I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun...

We left home early this morning.  In Fort Lauderdale it was cold.  Travelling with a family from Norway they could hardly wait to get to Eleuthera and experience some warm weather.  Unfortunately for them, from the day they arrived it has been very cold in Florida.  They did not have a very first good impression.  Hopefully when we get back the weather will be nice and sunny again.

 Everyone was super excited as we boarded until they youngest daughter saw the plane.  She claimed it was so little and she just burst in tears.

For us this was a big plane.  We are used to travelling in an eight seater. Her parents thought it best she sat next to Arvid and I since we were "experienced" travellers in this plane.  Well they were not wrong.  We held her hand throughout the flight and Arvid who normally sleeps during the flight stayed awake all the time while we talked to the little girl.  Before you know it she was laughing and not long afterwards we landed.

After a very nice lunch we did some shopping and a little touring of the area.  After a nice walk along the beach everyone is now taking a little rest before we head out for dinner in the evening.  So far it has been the perfect start of a few days in the island.

The purpose of our lives is to be happy...
