31 st May
I was woken by loud voices .typical as I didn’t have to get up. I finally emerged at 8.30 went and took a shower before getting coffee.
My foot still seems swollen so I took more pills and then soaked my feet in a foot spa with Epsom salts. I drank more coffee as my foot soaked .
Then I began to do my chores.
I am still missing a box I sent when I arrived in the US and the tracking number got wrecked in the rain. so I don’t think I will see it again but I haven’t yet given up hope, so armed with some info I headed to the P.o the lady in charge was very helpful so fingers crossed.
Whilst I was there I grabbed two postal boxes as I wasn’t sure of what size I needed.
on the way back i called into the grocery store.I was doing my best not to spend too much , but it did include a big juicy steak for tea.
Once back I decanted my food from their boxes to ziplocks then into my boxes that i had picked up from the postoffice. I was halfway through this process ,when the heavens opened up.

I grabbed my stuff and ran to the veranda where I finished my packing.
In the afternoon I soaked my foot again whilst I sat drinking beer, I was miles away when I received a text from Jess she was in town, so I gave her directions to the hostel where I was staying.
At last Jess came into view, It was so great to see Jess ( now named Blue grass) again so we had plenty of hugs. Accompanying Jess was tripod, who I haven’t seen for while either .
We drank a few beers before they needed to go back to their hotel for their own chores .
I finished up what i was doing before heading to their motel to join them.
I took my steak and prepped food and we sat by the pool . There were communal BBQ by the pool so i lit one and cooked my steak as we drank beer.
After we went to the Mexican bar for a few more then bed
