Friday

Oh dear.. the day started out well, went into St Georges with Pearl this morning to attempt to find some soccer or rather football shoes. I'm officially a member of the ladies Ladybug football team and our first practice will be next week sometime. We had just pulled into down town and I was attempting to park at the side of the busiest main road when my car dies -and to top it off I was blocking a main throughway to a store. Thank goodness for amazing friends! My friend DJ drove all the way into town to rescue us, we tried boosting the car but my battery was DEAD. Luckily the town is small enough that Pearl and I could hoof it accross the street to buy a new battery which DJ installed. The only difficulty was finding a place that took credit card payments -lesson to self, carry lots of cash to buy the car candy! I'm hoping that it was only the battery and not the alternator but only time will tell.. Pearl was so sweet, she was such a good sport about being marooned and bought us smoothies while we waited for DJ. I am starting to get some amazing friends down here...
Highlight of tonight was definitely going up north of the island to Gouyave's Fish Friday. I went up there with Jed, Elise and Amanda, all dorm mates. It was very tasty food and a fun taxi ride there and back.. here are a couple of pics of the occasion.

Our group...
Welcome!
Cheers!
