One of the interesting things about this lighthouse is that the historical society there has been fighting to have it remain a Kerosine Lamp Lighthouse instead of converting to electricity. Silly island people. Always trying to buck innovation.

LOL I love homemade mac n cheese with freshly melted parmesan cheese and a hint of cayenne pepper (or red pepper flakes).

And how have you gone this long without trying Key Lime pie. Well, at least you weren't kicking yourself after you had some that you'd been missing out on it all this time. The view from the top of the lighthouse is fantastic and well worth the effort to get up there.Michele {Malaysian Meanders}https://www.blogger.com/profile/18313351463568423694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-86139968666945526412015-07-06T05:20:24.955-07:002015-07-06T05:20:24.955-07:00Yes there is!

Probably they hope you will be distracted by the beautiful colors. Really nice photos! And some day maybe I will get to try coconut bread.
