First Week Successful

While its only Thursday, this marks the end of diving for our week. We had no significant problems.

Our boat radio is broken but a new one is on the way. Our motor tilt still doesn't work but I stopped by Fantasy Island today and talked to the mechanic. He said he will stop by tomorrow or Saturday. We really hope he does. Right now we have to tilt the motor by touching some live wires to certain hot spots on the motor and that creates a spark which isn't very good considering there is gas all around.

It was very warm again today and I had to go to town just to get some money for payroll. I'm not sure I paid everyone the correct amount so I've got a letter off to my boss to clarify how it works. Henry our Dive Master hasn't made it the last two days. He said he's sick and when I passed him on the road he said he was going to the clinic but he also said he went a couple nights ago.

We had a couple people dive and snorkel this week and the said the snorkeling is pretty good. I think they must have gone out 5 or 6 times so it must be good. They spent a lot of time on the secluded beach also and just loved their time away from the snowy winter in Denver.

I'm taking one diver to another resort tomorrow so he can get in a couple more dives. All the other guests are just booking various tours around the Island. I can of course provide that service to all of you when you visit.

I stopped by a little settlement called Punta Blaca today that is only about 3 miles down the dirt road. Its a good 15 minutes however. Anyway, there is a great house I can rent and I may do that next week instead of attempting to share a room with someone here. I'm waiting to find out how much they want for the place before I decide.
