Day 145 - Good friends, bad weather

After an amazing day of diving (Tanya took a day off her hyperbaric treatment today, so that we could enjoy a 3-day dive weekend together for a change), we rushed to the ferry pier to meet Dima and Tauheed, who came to visit us from NYC.

We spent the rest of the day running organizational errands to make sure that they spend the next 5 days with all the comfort available on the island:
  • rented an awesome oldmobile

  • checked into the dive shop

  • introduced them to the deliciousness of the Mexican seafood cuisine at La Perlita

It is so great to have them here. Now it totally feels like home. For me, home is not a place, but rather a feeling. A feeling of being comfortable and safe. A feeling of belonging. An assurance of a “physical” safety net: being surrounded by people who you love and who love you.

Unfortunately, the weather sucks. The tropical storm has officially begun and it's pouring all day. It is supposed to clear up only on Wednesday, when the guys are leaving back home. What terrible luck! Lack of thereof, to be correct.

Update from the Scrabble Front

Being obsessed paid off: Tanya & Liang - 1 : Michael - 0.
