Back To Normal - Almost


We have almost caught up with our sleep and have begun to return to normal. Normal is not always very exciting... today's activities included laundry, grocery shopping, locating the recommended doctors and dentist and a trip to the post office. We spent the afternoon on the internet here at Sam's, which is pretty slow. (Not Sam's fault)

There is no Skype here in Palau. Rumor has it the national telephone company prevents access to it, so we are doing our best to use Yahoo Messenger, but with little luck so far. For some unexplained reason, I cannot post photos to these blogspots today. Sorry about that.

It might be useful to note that there is a good selection of groceries in three major stores and many smaller ones here in Palau. You can get fresh fish, of course, but Angus beef is also available. A good supply of fresh fruits and vegetables is available most of the time. We are still looking for a reasonable source for wine....this remains a challenge. There is quite a selection of good restaurants.

Last night we had a HUGE Yellow fin tuna steak with salad and onion rings for $10.00. Oh yeah, the currency here is the US dollar.

Until tomorrow! B and L
