22 Jan, Wed



Madi gave me some money to buy some Masonary Sealant 'paint' for the concrete walls in the shower.   before i went to the Hardware store, this i went on a mission looking for some tiny donuts that Jess had.   i don't really like donuts, but they were really good.    i found the little coffee shop ...  i really need to stay away from that place !    ...they reminded me of the cinnamon and sugar donuts i used to get at HillCrest Farms during apple season.    the guy had this cute little donut making machine and made them fresh for me

 


and then dropped them in cinnamon and sugar

they are only about 1.5" in diameter.... so wonderful !


so i get back with my 'paint' ..... Have you ever painted with Milk or Half and Half ?   ...that's how thick/thin this stuff is ... strange.     i got one coat on today and it looks pretty bad  :(    do i need another coat, or is now 'sealed'  ?????????????????

i also went around to the stores looking for some oil based primer paint for the shower doors.   there is no primer paint on the island.   one owner told me that it is so expensive that they don't bother to order it because no one would buy it.   so that means people don't prime before they paint here ....

enough 'paint' for today ....

Madi told me that my Trash sign told people NOT to put their food in the bin, but did not tell them where TO put it ... so i was on another 'sign' mission for the rest of the day ...

here the result ...

 

we had a sunset tonight ... :)



kind of a funny story:   a couple arrived today to camp.   they said they arrived on the island last evening and couldn't find Madi's, so stayed at Bella's Hostel down the road.   they said they were tired because there was loud noisy music all night and they weren't able to sleep.   Madi and i assured them that this was a very quiet place, and they would be able to relax and enjoy themselves here in peacefulness.
well ... about 5pm ... loud music came blaring from just around the corner!   OMG! ...  it continued all night ..... i've never heard that here before.     ...we felt so bad for that couple.
 
Andrew and i went to Wish Willy's for dinner.   we got the last 2 Lobster Tail dinners of the night   :)     ..on the way home we walked past the house party ... they had tables and chairs set up in the street ... it was a birthday party ... so hopefully, the tent couple will stay another night and it WILL be quiet   :(
