Day 3 – Resting

 

The traveling has caught up with me. Today I just sat around and welcomed visitors between naps.

 Both activities were enjoyable!

 

I got up from one nap just as a family was leaving. They dropped by to say, “Welcome”, and stayed into the evening.

 

While we were “chatting”, Isaac interpreted for us, there was a disturbance in the tree just ahead of me.

 The branches were bending and swinging. It appeared that were had about 20 bats with a wingspan of over 12

inches feeding on some unripe berries. Fascinating!

 

After they left Isaac and I went to a “phone centre” – sophisticated name for a stall beside the highway -

and I called Judy. Though we had a connection it left a little to be desired. With the buzzing on the line and the buses

going by it was difficult to hear. But we managed.

 

Isabella is trying to make me into a “plumpkin”. She serves wonderful meals with fascinating flavours. I can’t wait

to get home and let Judy share them. We went to bed early because we were to get up at 4:00 am to head out to the tsunami area.
