Wednesday 30th
March 2016
Every Wednesday morning, 10-12, there is a
self-defence class here in the marina clubrooms. Two kindly and keen volunteers come to give
an energetic lesson, and only two marina denizens take up the opportunity… Last
week, on Wednesday, we were on the fortnightly bus trip to G mall
supermarket. And today, at 10am, I went
for a long swim along the reef, thinking it was…Tuesday!

I do know it is Friday today…I am back in Davao, drinking
coffee at the Swiss Deli, where the internet does actually work. Pete wants me
to point out that Samal Island is nowhere near as expansive as I said; we did a
round trip, with many detours and backsliding, and we only did 120 kilometres.
It seems probable that we will be able to be lifted out
of the water next week; they SEEM to be rigging up some sort of platform. All very difficult without a regular power
supply…Pete and I have both been swimming around under the boat, scraping off
as many big tenacious barnacles as we can.
The little fish who live in the marina are delighted with the many
tidbits which come their way!
