WEDNESDAY 24th MARCH
2010
08.30hrs We had a good lie in this
morning, try and catch up with the sleep.
Fats and Stephen spent most of the morning in
the water , scrubbing and cleaning off the goose barnicles and scum along the
waterline,
and at that, we only managed to do half the boat, ,
phew !
It was interesting, we had little 9" fish swimming
in and around our arms and legs and every so often, they would park themselves
in front of us and look us straight in the eyes, cool!
We hired a car, ( not easy, as there are only a
total of 6 hire cars on the Island,)
We did a short tour around to the town in the
afternoon, Its interesting the way different places operate different
times,
Here, They get up real early, and everything is open at 07.00hrs, some places even open at 05.00hrs Then at the otherend of the day, they close ,
anywhere between 3pm and 5pm
Later we had Dinner ashore with Bill and Rosemarie
from " Crazy Horse" in the Raleis Moehau Restaurant,
It was ok. S.H. had a steak , it was only just
ok.
We returnede to the boats early,
thats it for today

Skipper)
