Welcome! Tally ho!

Our B.V.I. Adventure is designed to give our family, friends and any other interested followers a look into the life of two expatriates making their way on the island of Tortola. Tortola is the largest island in the British Virgin Islands.

So, why did we move 2,000 miles away from our home in Knoxville, Tennessee? Michael accepted a position as the director of retail and international sales for a Caribbean clothing brand.

Cheers!

Day 253 continued: BVI Lunch

Most days, I have lunch at home.  And if Michael is working from Charles' home office, he is able to pop over and join me.  But when he's at the office in town, he is usually left to fend for himself.


Just to give you a little insight into where that can lead him, here is an email exchange between us today:


Me:     Have you had lunch?
MD:    Yep.  Curry and goat.  And a salad.

Me:     Huh?  Where did you get GOAT?
MD:    The chicken truck.

Me:     Was it really goat? 
MD:    Yes.  And I liked it.


I looked it up and apparently curry and goat is a popular Caribbean dish, though I haven't seen it on any menus (other than apparently the one at the chicken truck, which is an actual truck if you were wondering.)
 
There are quite a few goats on the island...


So, there you have it.  Curry and goat from a chicken truck.  This is our life!
