So paradise does have some trade offs. Just like every where else. As I said before, it is rainy season and we are not being disappointed. The POP airport was closed for a while yesterday and have not heard anything about today. High winds that make the tree limbs dance and the TV cable lines fall. Power not a problem so far today but we have everything we need to keep everything going.
Poor Rafael, our live in grounds keeper has nothing to do.. well he does but we have found a couple of indoor things that he can attend to. After that, we will set him up with a few DVDs in the empty rental. We have learned how to work the machine and change the English movies to Spanish or French. Rafael is quite happy with the French, being from Haiti, and that we would allow him to sit and watch a few movies.... in his language. We did this last evening and I think he stayed up until after midnight. He knows that this is something special and not to expect this to be an on going bonus.
We are amazed that our Internet connection is almost never affected! Why everything else and not that?
Our housekeeper, Momi, had to wade thru 2 feet of water on the road to get here this AM. We made sure that she had some dry shoes and she has been busy doing her normal duties.
I think that our plans of going out to dinner tonight will not happen. Guess that I should pull somethings out of the freezer.
Let's see. Looking at another 5 to 10 days of this. I feel sorry for all those coming down and find nothing to do. But again, it is not snow and freezing!
And it's a warn rain..... just lots of it.
