Christy and Perry Saving the World

Our first night on Milu since last April and it was a hot one. We are perpendicular to the breeze so we don’t get much down below. We tried sleeping on deck but it is so dewy that you end up soaked. Also, there are mosquitoes about so you are a little bit exposed. After…

Waddya know, it’s hot and sunny. Sometimes rains. Hard to believe we launch today and are leaving Bob’s. We meet Dwayne (Bob and Mila’s house sitters who stay in the apartment above us) early in the morning and they say to take our time checking out as, not surprising, there is no one coming after…

Hot, sunny. Rains now and then. We’re up and out early, arrive Clarke’s Court just after 8 am. We want to meet Jose to ask him to move the boat stands so we can finish sanding and painting the spots covered by the 9 stands holding the boat up. As always he’s accommodating and promises…

Rained hard overnight but nothing during the day. Very hot. I saw that yesterday was supposed to be a temperature record for October here, but I’m not sure that’s correct – didn’t seem anything terribly unusual. I’ve taken to writing the DOW on these post titles cuz I can’t remember dates! Ran out of coffee…

Hot, sunny No power Genoa Dodger, before 8am FB tells me that it was seven years ago today Audrey and I did our first concert together – Alt-J at the old Massey Hall.

Hot sunny. I’m up and I leave the door open as Bob is going to show me and Dwayne how to haul out his dinghy. He sees me, says “Are you up Perry?” . “I’m up”. The three of us go down to his boat shed and he gives us the skinny. Bob says he…

Hot and sunny, occasional rain. We are somewhat slow to get going this morning. It’s a holiday and there won’t be anything open at Clarke’s so no hurry to get there just to do work. But get there we do. We start sanding but it is hard for Christy as you have to reach and…

Hot, humid, sunny mostly, rains sometimes, when it does, it rains hard. We dinghy over to Clarke’s after breakfast and are very concerned that “No problem” has turned into a problem. No sign of sanding activity on our boat, they haven’t even put the tarps up. There is no power at our site. I find…

Yeah what else. It’s hot, humid, rains hard from time to time. Even the locals complain about the heat. At times it is tough, like when you’re jammed into the back seat of a local bus but mostly we don’t find it too bad. Maybe cuz we got A/C to cool the room off from…

Hot and sunny, humid. I get up real early and head to Clarke’s to try the dinghy repair. Turns out it takes 2 days to seal so want to get at it early. I walk back to Izzy’s in time to help pack up and head to Bob’s. We do biz work, lots of dinghy…
