A TRIP TO THE BEACH Living on Island Time in the Caribbean

Walking away from one's home in Vermont to open a restaurant in Anguilla sounds both frightening and fascinating. But husband and wife team Melinda and Bob Blanchard took the plunge. Melinda gives a delightfully honest account of their struggles to open and manage a restaurant on an island that has very little of what is needed to accomplish the task. Overcoming near impossible circumstances with restaurant supplies, employees, weather conditions, and demanding guests, Melinda discloses the love they discovered for Anguilla and its inhabitants, as well as the deep happiness and satisfaction they found in achieving their dream.
