well ive made it to the end of my first week, only just. the six oclock starts are killing me and the party last night with plenty of rum wasnt what was needed to catch up on my sleep this morning. But day off today so some free time to come into town. the base is really remote, it´s about 40k out of Mahahaul, powers from a generator that we can turn on for a couple of hours each evening and waters from a well so were strictly limited to showers only every third day. still i`m learning to love the grungy look.
The weather hasn`t been kind. really strong winds the past 3 days meant that we couldnt get the boats out so no diving. Managed a couple of snorkling trips in the lagoon instead spotting coral. I`ve been studying hard but didn`t quite reach the 95% pass mark on my coral exam so i`m trying again tomorrow. my latin is almost passable now and i`ve stoped inventing my own unique species so its a good start.
Off now in search of some meat, it`s a veggie diet on base and i`m really craving a bacon buttie... wish me luck
