Haven`t had a chance to get to the internet place, so I have to backtrack the past few days. Monday, we hiked a nearby mountain to view a long waterfall. The boy`s mother and little sister arrived for a few days from "the capital", as it is always referred to here. New Years Eve was spent in town with a community bonfire and all the locals out in the streets, drinking beer or rum, and loud music - the volume thumping in your chest loud. Yesterday Jerry and I took the motorscoter over the hill to Miches, a small fishing village on the coast. We climbed a nearby mountain with a spectacular view of the mountain range and the coast. There is a small piece of waterfront property that I am thinking about purchasing. I would construct a cement hurricane proof building with a shop space below and an apartment on top and use it as rental property until I retire in 15 years or so. It is only $6000 dollars for the land...We clocked about 60 miles on the scotter! Taking it esy today - I will probably do some exploring on my own.
