Day 8
Mostly Cloudy - 85 Degrees
When they go low, we go high. We went high up into the hills, in fact, for high tea at the Good Hope Great House.
The ride there was an hour and a half of twists and turns and bumps and lumps in the back of the bus, leaving us both a little green and queasy upon arrival. The old sugar plantation dates from 1774 and has some small measure of dilapidated charm. The Great House was Good, a fine house museum as far as it goes, but it was much more pleasant roaming the grounds than touring the house.
The highlight of tea was our tablemate from Australia, now living in Atlanta. We had Great Hopes, but the tea and scones did not live up to the conversation.
The best shot of the day was at sailaway.
Next Stop: George Town, Grand Cayman
