Life is easy sometimes

A surgeon is currently staying who can cover Dave at week-ends. Since it was Helen’s birthday we decided, along with two other British doctors who work in the clinic to take a taxi for 1½ hours to ‘Kent beach’, and board a motor canoe to cross over to the 7 mile tropical paradise island, known as Banana, because of its shape. We spent a night (full moon) there in a small resort, swam, wandered through the jungle full of birds, and through little villages hundreds of years old, and enjoyed lobsters (for the first time) straight out of the sea at £6 a plate!

Anna was nearly hit by a falling mango during breakfast, so she took the hint and ate it! The previous afternoon while she was reading in a hammock a big black snake fell out of a palm tree beside her! (True)
