Water and Food

Hola!

Today was pretty domestic.  It poured rain most of the morning, so I did lots of school work.  Normally, i sit at a plastic patio table outside under a porch to do my work.  That gives me a breeze and shade, which is good for reading, and protects me from the rain showers we've been having.  But it rained so hard today, i had to move my office indoors....

The weather cleared this afternoon, so i biked to my favourite "non-beach club" beach.  About 4 km from here, on the North end of the island.  It actually has a very nice patch of sand and a big pier.  Once when standing on the pier, i saw several "needle fish".  Long skinny fish about 2' long, with long skinny noses, about 1' long.  Very neat!

Today, the wind was very strong and it was cool.  So i didn't go into the water.  But many kids did and had a blast playing in the big waves/surf. (Biking there was really hard, coming back was easy breezy!)

On my way back, i went to the grocery store for food.  I always find it so neat to see how similar our stores are, and how different.

) I have not brought or bought butter or peanut butter.  I had soft boiled eggs with toast-yum!  I had toast left and wanted something on it.  Sweetened condensed milk, yum-yum!!!  In the cutest little pop top tins....
