Lunch Date Sabang
  It still feels very strange to have
left an island behind but face the same one, well that’s what a horseshoe shape
will do. As we return ‘to the other side’ on the morrow we decided to lunch
ashore and see if we could find a tuktuk to see the Zero Kilometre Monument. A
lovely little spuddle across to beach Baby Beez and soon on the high
street....... Little shops and a petrol station as Bear went in to see if Coke Zero could be
found.
  At the end of the street to our right
we saw Miftah Souvenir and on a hunch went up the
steps, a winding path took us past a guesthouse or
two.
  At the end of the path, down some
steps and we popped out at the next beach. The only other
yacht here was just leaving and we could see Beez on the Rubiah side.
 Beez
Neez sits quietly at anchor.
  A few ‘One Careful
Owners’. That’s a bit harsh calling those gravestones
‘One Careful Owner’. What are you talking about,
those two on the right picture.......Don’t not be foolish, Sir, they are old monitors AND when did you
see a shiny, glass gravestone before.
Oh.
 We carried on a little and beyond a
building site was – by random chance – Dee
Dee’s.
 Dee Dee’s
had been recommended to us by fellow sailors Claudia and Craig.
  Dee Dee was very welcoming and we
were soon settled at a low table with incredibly low plastic chairs but Beez was opposite. Perfect. We enjoyed watching a
group of children playing (with nothing) but having a
great time.
 Not until I got up did I realise why,
if I leaned forward, the front legs of my chair
splayed open, so I had leaned back. Bear had a set local meal, chicken and chips
for me, four drinks and a smashing view, all for the princely sum of seven
pounds and two pence. Marvellous.
  Meanwhile, the
construction, around a tree, was coming along a pace. Someone clearly
didn’t measure twice and cut once but never mind, an
extension....
  Back the way we come, passing a typical house and a cafe
sign.
 Along the
path, back through Miftah’s and to find a tuktuk.
ALL IN ALL THE COMPANY WASN’T
TOO SHABBY.......
LOVELY, TRANQUIL AND
TASTY |
