SEPTEMBER 10 is a National holiday. After decolonization, Independence Day (September 21) was given much more recognition than September 10 by the state and general public. “National Day” was reverted to the title of “St. George’s Cay Day” in 2009, but remained commonly known as “The Tenth”.

We started out the morning with a shake and lobster tostadas from The Shack. Great place right at the main pier…if you’re not in a hurry.
The start of the parade…
End of the day back at the pier. All the kids jumping and swimming!
NO SCHOOL ON MONDAY
Fishing calm waters with a hand line and rod.

Only caught an Angel Fish I threw back but we had a visit from some dolphins.
As soon as I gave up on fishing, some kids showed up and we had fun playing and jumping off the bridge!
It was a fun 3-day weekend that made up for having to start school last Monday on Labor Day.
We saw dolphins (Risso’s dolphins) in Carmel Bay on Labor Day weekend too. It’s funny to think that there are dolphins hanging around in very different parts of the world at the same time. They sure are cool to watch though.
