We're doing nothing, today. We've got a few chores, but we've called a moratorium on projects in favor of our first rest day since arriving two weeks ago. Neither of us can determine on what we spent so many days of work, but we think that there was more cleaning for Conni and Bill was a bit more unproductive than usual. Our wonderful boat watch lady, Ludivine, took on 30 boats and she admitted that they were too many.

We each had a great meal last night at the roulotte, Chez Marie. I had a slab o' grilled swordfish with fries, and Conni had a shrimp curry. Both were delicious and well-prepared. It will come as no surprise that they are expert at grilling fish, and since the owners of Chez Marie were obviously Chinese, their hand with curry was also no surprise. We also consumed a 2-L bottle of Orangina, a surprise to us both. We had failed to hydrate, evidently. Even after consuming that astonishing that volume of liquid, neither of us made trips to the head during the night! We've got to drink more!

Of course, if you read this, we did finally find a Wifi hotspot and I was able to upload yesterday's long blog and get some email out. The folks at Alaska Rubber have decided to help all they can, so we're hoping for some more information soon, so that they can get the proper regulator in the mail to us.

Tomorrow will be the last voyage of our old Nanni.
