First Day in Ambaru
Bay
 Our waking
scenery.
 We have new
neighbours, hard to tell how many are aboard but at least eight, plenty
of giggling and chatter from these happy locals.
 No sooner than we stop than ‘stuff’ comes out.
 After much grunting, getting stuck
and a fair amount of cursing, the lounge table was upright
once more. While that was going on I washed a tee shirt, two towels,
three fluffy floor mats and and my ring seat. That proved to be a bit of
challenge, so heavy when wet. It ended up tied to a granny bar. After lunch and
a win at backgammon it was time to take ceiling panels down each side of Mr.
Dickinson. I was heartbroken at the mess under the panel over the kitchen
corner, it dripped, nothing for it but to take the vinyl off and dry the wood in
the sun. More work needed there. The long panel over the lounge wasn’t too bad
but needed a sunbathe. Bear put diesel in the tank and set about replacing the
the bar and solar panel on the right side of the girl.
 During Bear’s battle with the table
he took all my sewing spares from the middle floor
bin. Apparently the waves had sent water up as far as my bags – for the first
time ever. Result, a lot more sorting, but not today.
 In the afternoon, a local paddled
over and asked for a piece of rope for this handsome hand of
bananas. Bear handed over a dollar and a bit of old rope, I have never
seen such fat ladies fingers. We started a game of Mex Train Doms but only
managed the first round, the hobbled repair on the conservatory lamp
failed....... Showers, supper and a couple of New Tricks. A quieter night with
no rolling. Tomorrow another day at the bit.
ALL IN ALL A VERY SMALL
DENT
A GOOD START BUT MUCH TO
DO |
