Oct 31 - Have to get organized


We haven't even washed the deck yet! Our friends Kim and Sharon (sv Georgia J) had bought a car and invited us to the Sunday Farmers Market in Keri Keri. Kim's doing great driving on the "wrong" side of the road, and we went to scenic Paihia first, found an ATM, walked around, and then went to the market. We bought fresh fruits and veggies, ate a delicious breakfast at the Cinema Cafe, and had a jolly good time. By the time we got back to the boat it was 1300 hours, and I was determined to do a bit of work. I hooked the hose up and the fitting to the dock spigot promptly broke. I took that as a sign that maybe I should just relax more, open the bottle of Ake Ake Merlot we had just bought, and get on the internet. Boats are arriving in hordes to the Q dock, and we don't see too many empty slips. Weather has been fine; sunny and warm (certainly a relative term for those of us who have spent so long in the Tropics!), with occasional light drizzle.
The picture is another view of the Q Dock from our slip. Nobody's there now, but another wave of boats is heading down.
