We've had this trip booked since mid summer. I had seen on the web that the full moon was on New Years Eve. We've spent more than a little time at Trellis Bay and have wanted to make it to one of their full moon parties. Trellis is a tight knit group of very savvy business people. Aragorn has a terrific art studio and has created a variety of fire structures - fire balls, fire boxes and a big burning man among them. A big fire is built in each and when lit they are very visual. One of the other business owners is Jeremy, a brit who runs the Cyber Cafe and Trellis Kitchen. I'm writing this from the Cyber Cafe's front porch. It has a very peaceful vibe; I'm guessing the bushwacker doesn't hurt that vibe. Jeremy takes full advantage of what every savvy resterauntuer should - the eay access to very specific music on internet radio. Check out SOMA FM, enuf said. Anyway Jeremy runs the food and drinks side of the fireball party. There was a big crowd, Melodee estimates at 500 but I think more. Lots of locals. Entire families came out for the evening of what Melodee called Carribbean Karoke, some really good bands, carrbbean dancers, jumbies and finnaly the lighting of the fire sculptures. There was a good fireworks display ove the bay at midnight. Yes we did make it up to see in the new decade! All in all, it was a fun night, one we'll remember.
