Today is our last full day on the island and Ray agreed to try a new restaurant. Since he usually prefers the familiar and I like to experiment, trying new places is his gift to me. The place we tried is called
Tukka. They just opened last October, taking over what used to be an Italian restaurant called Portifinos. This is in East End, near the Wreck of the Ten Sail. Tukka boasts a blend of Australian and local island cuisine. The food was very good and the presentation was lovely. I am including photos of each course below.

View from Tukka |
Definitely a good choice for our last afternoon dinner on the island. We ended the day with our usual walk and stop at Dunkin Donuts for iced coffee. It has been a lovely, relaxing week. Now to make our way home tomorrow. Some would say we are taking a chance traveling on May 21, 2011, but Jesus said no one but the Father knows when the second coming will be. We can only live our lives as best we can and pray we will be found worthy when the appointed hour comes.
One more photo before I sign off for this trip - My favorite sign on the island:
(Note the walking stick leaning up against the signpost. )
