After the holidays at the beginning of Nov, the shops opened again.<\/p>\n
This was good because last week the 2 regular supply boats were in. This means, a few days later the supermarket has many things again the shelfs.<\/p>\n
It was pretty warm yesterday, so I waited in the shadow of the roofed area, where goods, delivered by the supply boats, where loaded into cars, pickups, and trucks to be delivered to their destinations, The driver of the car, which gave me a lift into the village is a sculpturer, who makes tikis. Here is a pretty good description of what tikis are: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tiki<\/p>\n
It was nice to talk to him on French. The award of all my French exercises I’m doing these days. It’s worth to learn French because there are also a lot of French sailors around here.<\/p>\n
In the shop I was lucky. Got some fresh vegetables and fruits. Also some other things like powered milk were in the shelfs again. I also got again 7 pieces of 5 l water bottles. Because of these 7 bottles the shop brought me back to the dinghy dock at the little harbor by their car.<\/p>\n
The water bottles means 7 more great containers for various foodstuff, like rice, lentils, etc.<\/p>\n
I also will try to fill spaghettis in such a container. Pastas, are beside wheat grains, favorites of weevils. I recently found that there were some in a pack of spaghettis packed in cardboard.<\/p>\n
In one container I can store approximately 4 kg of rice, 3.5 kg of lentils. Thus, each of my wheat grains containers contains about the same.<\/p>\n
Back to shopping. I thought yesterday that shopping here is like shopping in former so called communist countries. If there is something in shop shelfs one needed to buy.<\/p>\n
On the way back, I saw place which looks like selling papayas from their own trees. I will have a look today.<\/p>\n
Because the lettuce cannot be kept for long, I will now have lettuce based salads every day. Breakfast will muesli with fresh food or sandwiches with lettuce leafs in between. Such is life on boat with limited supplies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
