\"\"<\/a>Today was laundry day again. I was afraid it was going to rain, so didn’t get it out as early as usual. It didn’t rain here, but it did a couple of miles up the road. I managed to get a picture of a cute green lizard, probably iguana, hanging on the screened-in porch. He just hung there watching me. <\/p>\n

This afternoon, I had Larry drop me at the corner in town and I went shop-seeing. I found a fabric shop that was so neat and pretty. They sell the\"\"<\/a> fabric and will do some sewing there. I also visited some other shops that I had not been in before. <\/p>\n

I took a picture of Zeezicht’s where we used to eat on a regular basis. We have eaten there once this time, for old time’s \"\"<\/a>sake. It is now air conditioned and very comfortable. <\/p>\n

I also stopped by the fruit market and bought a papaya. The papaya here are different from the ones in Swaziland. The ones we knew in Africa were yellow inside and outside — about the color a cantaloupe is on the inside.

\"\"<\/a>

'Old timers' still call it the 'fish market', but now they only sell fruits and vegetables.<\/p><\/div> The ones we get here are red inside and outside. They are as red as a watermelon and taste a little like guava.<\/p>\n

After my two hour walk in town, I am ready for a swim in the ocean. It didn’t look too busy as I walked through the beach area. I did see a big tour bus pull out earlier, so they may be back for some time on the beach and ‘happy hour’. It’s not as enjoyable when the bar area is crowded as we have to walk by it to swim. Everything is outside so the bar is not contained in a small area, it kind of spills all over.<\/p>\n
