Have I died and gone to heaven?

After some networking at the laundromat, I was invited to join the aqua aerobics group at the Harborview Reef Pool, otherwise known as the "gab and splash". With the surf roaring in the background and the sun shining on our shoulders, we exercised up a frenzy, while laughing and talking. "The girls" filled me in on why they love to spend their winters here. Some were live aboards, some had graduated to cottages, but they all loved the wonderful natural beauty of the island, and they kept themselves busy with community activities, gardening, kayaking...so it got me thinking about spending the winters in Hope Town,

Andy and I headed up island to the Abaco Inn for lunch. This wonderful spot sits high on a hill between the Sea of Abaco and the Atlantic Ocean...breathtaking views and warm breezes.  For the frosting on the cake there was a golf cart parade at 5:30. With the cruisers sitting on the stone wall holding Tervis Tumblers of cocktail  juice, we cheered and shouted New Year greetings as the go carts rolled by, each decorated with imagination creativity. This was  followed by a reggae band, fireworks and a restful rocking of the boat for a good night's sleep.. Have I died and gone to heaven?
