09/10/22 Sun.  Another USN ship arrived about 3 days ago, the USS Brunswick, a fast catamaran.  She is equipped with four MTU V20 diesels as her main propulsion and I'm sure glad I don't have to pay the fuel bills as each engine consumption is over 2,000 litres an hour!

17/10/22 Mon.  Up early this morning to take Ana to the airport for her flight home to Manila, and it was blowing a hooley and pouring with rain!  At the airport by 0400 and I was back onboard by 0515.  On my own now for the next two weeks.

31/10/22 Mon. Nothing much going on over the last two weeks, rain most days and some strong winds.  I've been into town just the once!  Today though, I spent some time in the yacht club, then went up to Robinsons and bought some electric switches and a bite to eat.  Now I had 3 hours to kill before Ana's flight was due in and I decided to walk slowly to the airport.  When almost there, I stopped in a little roadside cafe and had a couple of coffees - still over an hour to wait.  At the airport, I discovered that Ana had still not boarded the aircraft in Manila and there was a 3 hour delay to the flight!  It was a long wait outside the airport building (you can't go inside unless travelling).  Finally, she arrived and we got a trike back to the yacht club and got onboard just after 11pm.
