Maaike coming to collect Claire for noodling

All the girls in Coral Cove swimming pool

Well, we know all about “canoodling” but we have only come across ‘noodling’ since being in the Caribbean and it’s only since coming to Trinidad that Claire has actually participated … its actually far too much like hard work for James!   To enlighten you: a noodle is a long circular piece of foam (sometimes with a hole through the middle) that is used to support your body while exercising in water.   Claire joined a bunch of ladies in the tiddly swimming pool at Coral Cove and under the expert tutelage of Willie Haskins was put through a rigorous exercise routine lasting just over an hour!   You can bicycle, row, swim like a dolphin, jump like Jack Flash, skip, pull the shades and pump the heads all in the name of acquiring a toned body.   Claire’s now hooked and has been working out while at anchor – a far harder exercise routine when taking current and tide into consideration!     We’ll blog photo of the toned body at some stage but the current model needs a little more work!
