Town Day

Today we woke up and got ready for a day in town. After listening to “The Net” and being a little too slow on the VHF to catch some good bargains we ran to the dolmus. We spent the morning going from shop to shop asking questions and pricing windlasses (what lets down and brings up your anchor). We may go for it and purchase a new one which is much needed. This is very exciting to me since my job is to be on the anchor and the windlass we have now sucks. I usually have to bang on it with a wrench or something to get it unstuck and then the chain runs out like crazy before I can stop it. Sometimes I feel like it’s going to take my fingers off! Amongst other errands, we did the all important stop by the DVD shop to pick up some more movies to add to our bootleg collection. I think we got 9 new movies for less than 2 bucks each! Which one to watch first……? Then after a stop for some lunch at our favorite doner shop we headed to the grocery store for another resupply. For some reason the dairy section really struck me today. There are three huge refrigerator cases and the bottom is nothing but yogurt. Good old plain, creamy yogurt in gallon containers. Impressive. We got back to the boat in the mid afternoon and were a little hesitant to put our dirty work clothes on but managed to get a little work done before snacking on an early dinner. It was an early night to bed so movie marathon will have to wait for another night.

Yogurt for as far as the eye can see......
