Birthday Celebrations

Today we rose early to go on a swimming with the dolphins tour. It was Fred's treat to Debbie to celebrate her birthday. Unfortunately we did not see any dolphin. (I guess no dolphin booked in to swim with the humans!)

We seem to be having difficulties with this part of our trip. First, Don got sick and was unable to eat or go anywhere far from the room, then we booked to go to a music festival in Stonetown, but our guide sent us a day early. Now today no dolphin. Oh well. Life is still blissful - sun, sea and surf!

While in Stonetown we did go to Monsoon, an Arabian restaurant. While there we saw a trio of Taarab musicians combining African, Arab, and Indian influences. Excellent.

We have met two couples from Turkey, they are a lot of fun. One couple has a brother who lives in Toronto and hope to visit Canada soon. The other couple have a vacation home in Ismir, turkey. We have exchanged addresses. Perhaps we can visit there sometime ?

Eight of us went out for a great dinner to celebrate Deb's (19th???) birthday. She says that is how young she feels. Makes sense.
