Holiday in Grand Turk

For those who did not know it, last Monday (May 24th) was a holiday on the island but for some reason it was moved to May 31st (today). I suppose to make it match with Memorial Day in the US or the Spring Bank Holiday in the UK...who knows... But this made me want to know how many Public Holidays and/or Bank Holidays there are during the year in the Turks and Caicos Islands. So I went for the ones in 2010 and I found 15. I had always thought that countries like mine (Argentina) or other Latin American countries, where the ones with the highest number of public holidays. Well, no. The islands win!
If you are interested in knowing the public holidays in TCI (2010) , here they are:

Anyway, National Heroe's Day and everything, Joan's Deli was opened until 5 pm so I was able to enjoy a vegetarian wrap after diving and my friend Jo-Ann her mango and prosciutto salad. And SandBar is ready to receive people for drinks and dinner so there will be places to go at walking distance after all.
See you tomorrow...

First post first

The goal of this little blog is to post every day something about our little island. Sometimes news, sometimes comments, pictures. Who knows... The idea is to post something useful or interesting than can be read quite quickly... Tonight, almost 11.10 pm, and being the last person at Salt Raker using Internet (thanks to Erika who allowed me to stay here alone and the directions to turn off the lights and fans before leaving...) I think that I will stop here... Good night and tomorrow I will come with more...
