Wednesday, 10 February - a dark and stormy day

It was a dark and stormy day as Snoopy would say. We stayed in, did laundry, and read in the morning.  Later we walked to the beach and followed it up the estuary, returning through town and stopping into the Irish Inn. for a not-so-scenic beer and met some people, from of all places Ireland!.  For dinner, we made chili in the apartment, read some more and watched the BBC news channel.   You can't make up this type of excitement!

Borgfjord's, Dalman's et al.  Bring your costumes!  It is carnaval here!  Sort of a cross between  carnaval and Halloween from what we understand.  It starts on Valentine's day and goes to the 16th.  Gail has been shopping for her costume.  Right now it's a dead heat between the naughty nurse and the sexy vampire!  Yea, right!

Bring a Lacrosse stick!  It helps to get oranges off the orange trees and makes your get away quicker!
