Yesterday we ran out of gas for the stove... this is one of the most frustrating things to happen on the island. A lot of the time you can't just run to the store and buy another tank, especially because there is a shortage right now (so I heard anyway). Thank goodness for neighbours though!! This morning we went over to Asif's and made some pancakes on his stove. The plan is to also use his oven for pizza tonight! Oh, speaking of pizza, another frustrating thing is when the cheese goes moldy after 1 week! I just bought some Mozzarella cheese in Roseau last Friday (to shred for pizza) and its already going bad... AHHHHHHH. And it is very expensive!!!!
On a good note, I had lots of fun with my parents last week!! They flew to the island for a visit March 10-17, and they really enjoyed it. Now they understand what I mean when I say its paradise! (well except when the above frustrations happen!)
We got a chance to see quite a bit of the island- Swam up Titou Gorge, hiked to Trafalgar Falls, soaked in sulphur springs (sooo nice), rowed up Indian River (where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed- when they visit Calypso), toured a Carib village, and hiked out to Emerald Pool (which I swam in as well- cold, but awesome!)
Well that's all for now! Time to get some more ingredients for the pizza :) I will post a pic of it when its cooked! This is our first attempt at making pizza from scratch... wish us luck!
Peace, love, happiness (and homemade pizza),
