We left Soper's Hole on Tuesday, mid-day, and sailed to the infamous "Foxy's" bar. You could spend the day there just looking at remnants of t-shirts hanging on the rafters, left by patrons of the bar over the years. Of course, some people just leave their thongs, underwear, and mini-skirts. I am still undecided whether to leave a shirt of Allan's, or Mac's shorts. Fighting for space in the rafters are wicked amounts of spiderwebs, and a variety of insects who found their final resting place.
This doesn't paint a very pretty picture, what with the moldy clothes hanging around, but one would be hard-pressed to find anything wrong with the cuisine. I had a rib steak that I could cut with my fork, with nice fresh vegetables. Allan had a tuna steak with rice and veggies. Mac opted for the King Fish with rice. Al still hasn't found "great" conch fritters, but thought the dish he had for an entre was probably the best yet. However, the search continues. (I recently found out that my daughter's underwear is part of the decor at Foxy's. Those crazy kids! I just keep getting prouder and prouder the older they get.)
We didn't see Mr Foxy himself last night; however, because we had forgotten the camera we took the dinghy in this morning and Foxy was chillin' in a hammock rappin' to a couple of ladies. He took notice of my "Canada eh!" tee and welcomed us over with some Canadian specific rap. He's quick for sure. Or has done it so many times it's like riding a boat for him. He told us about meeting the Queen and his trip to England and Buckingham Palace to receive the prestigious "Member of the Order of the British Empire".
If you ever get an opportunity to get to Foxy's you may come across a very popular and anatomically correct carved wooden monkey. Al urged me towards Mr Monkey and was ready for the shot when I turned around with embarrassment. This may be a long trip or a short trip, but I will get him back for that one.
I just have to share another beautiful sunset with you. The reason I notice the sunsets is because I realize that my reading time is over and the bugs are coming out to dine. Allan really gets chewed up bad.
Be safe everyone! And as they say in Great Harbour, "Have a Blessed Day!"
