Bawah is indeed beautiful. Probably why there's a resort going up. Completion by October.. theoretically. In process of this effort a barge full of containers and lumber is being towed in at 1100. In lieu of playing bumpers in the rather small lagoon with shocking possibility that some of the decorative rust will be scratched off 30 meter steel scow all 11 boats will clear out temporarily. OK, some are leaving permanently, but essentially you have not been lied to. Expect to dive before and after. Project manager Paul offered to give us a tour of the resort as some compensation for the disruption. Today in summary: immersion, diversion, excursion, immersion. Plus interspersion of provision consumption and libation ingestion. Additional notions for exertion this location in motion.

All went like clockwork.. well, except for the tow being on time. No worries, after drifting north at 2 knots, then fighting upwind and current to come back in the pass just behind the barge we were again on moorings shortly after noon. Tour scheduled for 1400. Wallowing in lassitude until then.

- Even Later

Last brain cell went out for a quart of milk and hasn't returned.
