Sunday morning we woke up to rain. Unlike most days this rain stayed longer than an hour. So we played games and did boat projects while we waited for a break in the weather so we could go to the beach. Our friends on Sound Effect left this morning to go back to Panama City. We will do the same Monday or Tuesday. For now, we will explore the northwest side of the island and hope the rain that stopped after 5 hours is gone for the day. It's not all bad; this morning reminds us why we left Tacoma to go to the tropics. We filled 20 gallons of water from the rain!

Well, we walked the island, it's about 1 mile long, if that, and has nice paved roads. There are several houses on Contadora, most are also bed and breakfasts. Every spectrum is represented from high end to my budget. The beaches are sandy and one even claims to be nude. Becky wouldn't let me go there. Several water taxis give tours of the Las Perlas Islands, so we could have done our three weeks in an afternoon if we wanted. We anchored on the south side, right in front of a hotel/restaurant called Restaurant Romantico. We spent time on the other side three weeks ago, so Becky is ready to give tours.

Life is good on Kokomo!
