Island life

So people always comment that we live in paradise… but paradise has its issues! Tonight I went to 2 stored to try and get eggs. Should be basic, nope no eggs.

Then I get home to a power cut. The average bill for a home is $700- $1000 for electricity. You would thing for that much you would get reliable power… nope!

The one thing you do get are views like this…

Does it make up for no electricity? At this point I would say no!

Big trip for the kitties

Yesterday all three kitties had to get their Rabies jab. I did manage to get them all in their carriers, although Avery was not happy as she could see what was going on. During the 30 minute drive we had lots of crying… so much that I felt guilty and let Mr. Ziggy out of his carrier. He was doing fine until he decided to go and sit on Avery’s carrier and smash her! So he went back into his carrier after that.

They were all reasonably well behaved at the clinic and very quiet on the way home!

Sunday afternoons

I am learning to use our new GoPro camera, so I am looking like a tourist and taking video and phots all over the island. Sunday afternoon Richard and I head down to Bacaro for a few glasses of wine and nibbles. It has quickly become our favorite place on the island. We will miss it the next few weeks!
