The Coast of Antigua from an old British blockhouse. September 12, 2001.
This is my post for Watery Wednesday. To see more of our beautiful watery world, or to join and post your own pictures to share, click HERE.
One advantage of winter days is that there is not a great of yard work to be done. That allows me to spend more time at my computer, catching up on projects that have been on my to-do list and reliving memories.
The picture above was taken on the coast of Antigua in the Caribbean. Both Betsy and I really liked this island. An old blockhouse, where the picture was taken, is in a dry, almost desert-like setting. And yet we could look out over that incredibly blue ocean.

The blockhouse certaintly is in the right place to see the enemies when they approach from the water side.
Excellent watery view. MB

I do love Antigua as that is where Mark and I were married! It is so gorgeous. We took a catamaran trip around the entire island, visited a secluded cove for snorkeling and lunch. Antigua has 365 beaches, as the natives say “one for every day”!

Wow!! How stunning! The water is so blue, did you go in it? Sadly, I don’t know what a blockhouse is. What did you do in the blockhouse and did you take any pictures of it? Did people watch for the enemy there?
