Picture update


Carribbean group dinner - rice and beans, jerk chicken, pineappple mango salsa, sauteed onions, cabbage and sweet potato with jerk spices. Not shown is our attempt to steam a chocolate cake, which was in progress at the time. It resulted in more of a chocolate pudding than a cake, but it was still delicious.


The sweaty chefs


Our ingenious method of hanging a single-bed bednet from the roof and fenceposts in a way that gets it to cover two people (thus allowing said people to sleep outside, where it is at least 10-15 degrees cooler, without taking down their indoor set-up). Exhibit #2 of how clothes pins and nylon cord are invaluable here (Exhibit #1 is our technique for hanging our door and window
curtains). We will drape a large piece of fabric over the bed to keep creepy crawlies from crawling up through the bamboo and a smaller piece over the air mattresses to act as a sheet, and install a hook to allow us to lock our back screen door from the outside, and voila, we will have two complete sleeping set-ups...one inside and one outside!
