Ras trumps us with a family card! When are you guys inviting the Board over? lol

I have to agree with him though. Nothing like home cooked. We met Nalda James and several of her classmates on the beach at Whitehouse on our first trip. They came done after school let out to check out the white people. She lived with us the following winter to attend school until she got so homesick and returned. Then we visited her family the following year as part of a circumnavigation of the island. Her family of 11 shared a humble 3 room house. The weather was rough so no fresh fish in a major fishing village. I walked about a mile to the fields with her cousin to fetch a goat. Dad and cousin gutted the goat in the front yard and butchered it with a machete on a plank between two trees. The dog (no name) snapped up anything that hit the ground. Miss Nal and I went to the store to get the curry. Mom and sisters cooked it up in the cooking shed. It was the best I've ever had, but we didn't stay long enough for the Manish water regrettably.
