Don't Drop the Soap...

As our fame continues to grow its becoming almost impossible to leave our yacht.  While reading on the sundeck of our lovely home away from home, a group of village children gathered 20 feet away from our boat and yelled "Asalum Walekum Bideshi!" over and over again until we waved.  They were soon after joined by an adult who insisted on some photos.  Later during our evening cricket game the paparazzi multiplied with several camera-phone wielding men documenting our every move. 

Courtney has finally found her demographic.  She has more friends now than ever before, who cares if they are in the 2-10 year old range.  If only they had facebook.

The joys of having a hole in your bathroom floor which doubles as your shower drain and urinal can come crashing to a halt in a mere second.  Courtney finally discovered the appeal of soap on a rope when her bar disappeared into the river after taking a bad bounce.  Luckily we had a spare. 

Finally topping our list of things we would love to bring back with us...the hospital boat's electric fly swatter.  Picture a tennis racket plus 20 volts.  In case you were wondering, flies make a lovely snapping sound while their tiny gnat friends simply disintegrate.

  1. Dude there is no reason, NO REAON, not to come back with that electric fly swatter... I mean come on, you have to have a plethora of things to trade with them!! Besides, Mom's sunflower fly swatter has seen better days and Mother's Day is creeping up on us too!
