We have been able to get a few things that were on our list, but they really only carry the basics. The people are very friendly in town - When looking around for some of the things on my list, a local (I forget his name) showed me around and he helped me with my Spanish and I helped him with his English. Because of his assistance, I was able to buy a flat of beer, which I was previously told they were sold out. He is a baker and I have arranged to get some bread from him this morning.

We went out for dinner last night with Salange and Desdemona and had a great time. A single hander from Sweden joined us as well - he has been cruising this area for 8 years so knows it very well and was full of information and interesting stories.

We are going to stay here I more night and then head over to the Holandes islands and anchor in the "swimming pool", where we will meet up with our friends on Better Days.
