02/07/24 Tues. Ana left today to fly to Manila for her
daughter's graduation from Senior High School, she will be back in a weeks time.
09/07/24 Tues. I went up to Robinson's this afternoon to
try and get a top up for the internet but couldn't find anywhere that
sold the scratch cards. Made my way to the airport and met Ana off her
flight, then we went to Max and Bunny's for a late 'dinner'.
14/07/24 Sun. Rain again this afternoon. Went over to the
yacht club in the morning and I had some breakfast there while Ana was
cutting sunbrella for Tom and Sheryl's dinghy chaps.
17/07/24 Weds. We are getting rain every day, sometimes
just a shower, other times a downpour! Ana continues with her
sewing for various boats and making her Barbie doll dresses to post off
to customers. I'm just fixing small things on the boat and
'saving' the bigger jobs for later!
18/07/24 Thurs. We went to Robinsons today to renew my
visa. It makes me laugh every time I go there and read the 'mission
statement' on the large notice attached to the back wall of the
office......"We aim to be the most efficient Immigration Service, blah,
blah". The guy who eventually attended to me was too interested in
playing games on his phone to be polite and courteous, and just made
short and snappy demands of me. Anyway, filled the forms and was
told to come back on the 23rd - yep, that's efficient, they only need to
stamp the damn passport!
23/07/24 Tues. Strong winds and rain continue each day, we
had 42 knots two days ago and 31 yesterday - makes things a little
uncomfortable! Back to Immigration today to collect my 29 day
extension (2,030 pesos), then into town and a wander around NCCC mall.
26/07/24 Thurs. The club lads came out today and checked my
mooring chain and ropes. While they were here, they cleaned the
bottom of the boat, which for some reason is attracting barnacles very
quickly - we've cleaned the waterline twice already since our arrival in
PP.
