Another Beautiful Day on Caye Caulker!

It was an early evening last night.

I met another neighbor yesterday.  Her name is Hiromi.  She is a Japanese volunteer working at the school teaching computer basics to the children.  She is here for the next two years and a very cheery person.  Hiromi said she would talk to the principal so that I may talk to classes within the school.

I’m sitting on the top level of the I & I Bar at close to sunset.  The is the second evening in a row where I’ve gone and am engulfed in solitude.  Yet from below there are so many sites and sounds of the island inhabitants and nature as well.

Last night local resident, Dylan Chaplin took me out and stopped by Oceanside Nightclub.  It was a karaoke night, which by-the-way is quite popular.  There was about eight to ten individuals in the establishment and I decided I would entertain the group with some of the dazzling charm of Miss Patty (that’s what they call me here).  So I picked Nat King Cole’s, “L-O-V-E”.  I have to say it was fun.  As I sang the song, I danced over to some of the guys at the bar and either moved a little closer, looking into their eyes or brushed my hand across their cheek.  Ok, I have to admit I kind of hammed it up.  At the end of the song the group did clap and cheer from my performance.  I guess they enjoyed it.
