Da beach life paradise...



Whoop Whoops World...


Well here in St Kitt's, the peace is tranquil, the pace of life steady and the windsurfing heady...

It's a relaxed paradise of an island, a place to hang and feel at one with the general universe.

The Warm character of the people, the gorgeous sunny days and the tropical breeze all make St Kitt's the home of all that's gorgeous.

To share some of my recent pictures and memories, this blog will be the catalogue of pictures of this island and the adventures me and wifey are having over here;

We have just 'obtained' a dog;


He is my wifes 'dog' and my fiend to train. He's sneaky, got sharp teeth, his name is Puki, which apparently is Hawiian (I think it means, vicous like cotton wool).

The sunsets here are real pretty, which I'll demonstrate in the next couple of shots:

This was just typical of the bare foot cruises that pass through here...

Just some rum, some fun and a beach party somewhere nearby :D

This is what I mean by relaxing athmosphere, you can't buy this stuff :) the piccy here was from 1/12/05 this Dec... sunset looking sweet nuh!

OK, me and a drink, unusual mind;

And da reason no one is there, is not cos mi pirate self is scary, but it's still early in da morning...

well mi tinks there will be more peace if mi goes this direction...

And dat is a chicken wing bone, not a spliff hi hi hi... it's a breezy day, so am decked in mi rash vest and windsurfing goggles ready fi da frey...

I'm beginning to see why you're such an "at one with yourself" Brit with nothing to fear but fear itself.. Enjoy.!

That is a cute puppy. Do ya think he can learn to kerf?

kerf?

I've only just taught it H'inglish, for sit.

Ericswan, my life is full of woes, not least that savage furry ferocious, cute looking monster...

Don't be fooled by it's anonymous, vacant stare, it's got me pinned down pretty well...

thank u Crypt0, no coicidence, it's a feature of da blogging tingy, u can fiddle dat bit :D

any way onto ya next insightful comment;

For da turning, Crypt0, yep beaches, sand, sun, surf, se...

the point is it will keep turning.

The way forward is obvious, more than the teeth on that ferioucious conspiring hound...

And love sunny pics Crypt0, no snow, unless there is a LOT of sun :))

And that's the thing Ericswan, once you have put FEAR itself, in a peaceful restful place in your mind. You can make fear, smile and giggle and not quake when it rears it'self to try to take ya mortal self... make it larf some more...

You might be frying to think of a way forward on the inside, but give the monster (FEAR) a funny face, you can deal with the problem at hand for as long as you got...

jas,
Reminds me of my days living in Miami. My day job was airboat tours in the Everglades. Very killer job. Always sucked having to go back to the city. Your "kids" are cute man.

What 'vicous' ? You mean viscous or vicious? How is cotton wool vicious?

I called Hawaiian Cultural Office at Volcano National Park and asked about meaning of Puki.

Most Hawaiian words have numerous meanings, depending on how they are pronounced.

Puki, pronounced pookee (spoken quickly, same as puki), with no emphasis on either syllable, and no hesitation between syllables, means;
a) Boot
b) Broke, as 'no get kala'(no have
money)
*
Puki, pronounced poo - kee, with emphasis on both syllables, and with a slight hesitation between syllables, which makes it sorta almost sound like two separate words, means;
a) carrying net
b) to check, or to curb, as in
pull back on reins of horse.

Take your pick...

Big help I am - confuse the poor lil puppy. He get too many names now !
hahaha. Have fun.

Love all your pics Jaz !

O.k. the wind is howl'n and the force is forcing and its damn coldish up here! Your pics bring me there, thank you. Smile to the sun, what a beach.
Keep those images rolling! WE are all just at the begining, and my brother is on Dominica island right now. We can here, can do virtual island visit. OMMMMMMM :)

p.s.
Lotsa Hawaii doggies named Puka.
Puka means hole or opening.
No make sense for dog name, but I tink peoples just like the sound of da word.
Puka shells have natural hole in center, so they are good for stringing Puka Shell necklace.

Jas :-)

I've been to Livingston before on the
south coast of Guatemala.

Here's what's on the back of my photo
that I plan to scan in...

"Livingston - seen here - is right at
the mouth of the river.
The town was originally founded by the
'Garifuna' - some black, African slaves
who were shipwrecked on an island in the
carribean and then made their way to here."

Some comments...

> It's one of those, 'good beers' u know... nothing else... hi hi hi

Yes...what is in that beer ? :-P

Other photos...

That dog looks seriously traumatised,
I'm pretty sure you should get that
looked into.

The ship pic. Could it be ? History will
never forget the name Enterprise? Mmmm.

Beach shots...is that a reef-o-naut ?

Family shots...Jas..L-O-V-E seems to
be in evidence ! :-> Hope you've got
the lightsabre ready there, just in
case...not that you'd need it, though,
by the look of this all :-)

Another beach shot with, is that your
'gang, Jas ? Sitting down there with
that guy with the shades on...could he
be your secret government contact ?

That kitten.

A hilarious t-shirt at the beach bar.

My photo scans are on the way !
