... time for another provisioning run. Marcello and I take a walk up the road to Vitoria and find a few minimarkets that have frozen meat, fresh bread, bottled water, and beer. It&#8217;s great that we don&#8217;t need much as it&#8217;s a longer walk than we expected. Meanwhile, Lisa has inquired about a dive with the whale sharks at the resort ...

Petite Cour -&gt; Ille Coco -&gt; Anse Lazio<br><br>The sun is shining, but, there's no wind. Perfect conditions for a snorkel at Ille Coco, so we rev-up the motor for our 10M trip to Ille Coco. <br><br>Once we get the anchor in, we immediately head off swimming to snorkel the west and south side of the island. It&#8217;s like being in an aquarium with hundreds of ...

... in 3-4m of sandy bottom. But, then we wouldn&#8217;t have a great memory of cooking our mega-red snapper while rocking back and forth in the salon. All I can say to Lisa is --- sorry.<br><br>As you might have guessed, nothing was going to keep Marcello from cooking our red snapper that day. The only question was how.

Once finished, we take Sunsail&#8217;s advice and head to the mooring ball field to meet Robert, but, instead find Miles, apparently, Robert does take a day off from managing his mooring balls.<br><br>Neal of Sunsail told us that we should depend on the custodians of these mooring balls to do our provisioning if we want to get the ...

... spoilt. There are walls of fishes, a parrot fish MY size, which I found even a bit scary. But the water is back to our usual 27 degrees. Dr T will drop his wetsuit as from tomorrow. We got to our local beach in the afternoon, 2 minutes walk from home and deserted. In ALL the shops together, we manage to collect a VERY basic supply to make spaghetti Bolognese. I do not like it. The meat tastes funny. Murder mystery and bed because tomorrow: our usual 2 tank dive.

... fick vi reda på att dom inte tog emot Rupies, vilket var det enda vi hade med oss dit. Så det var bara att sätta sig och vänta på nästa buss hem igen. Överallt ser man killar i rastaflätor som mest verkar ta det lugnt. "Hakuna Matata" är deras motto. No worries... Hela tiden frågar dom om man vill växla. Deras kurs är löjligt mycket bättre än bankens och det är ett sätt för dom att komma över svårtillgänglig, utländsk valuta. Utomlands är Seychelliska rupies v ...
