We've been without internet for about week- though at times it reappears for a few minutes, just as a come-on.  But now it's up- yay!  In the interim, we've lazed through some very hot weather, and watched some impressive yachts dusted off for Labor Day weekend (some towing their kids behind in plastic watercraft.)  The marina denizens put together a Labor Day feast, with lots of lavish eating.  And now we're sitting around the palapa trading info on hurricane season.  Most of us need to renew passports or cruising permits to stay here another month- so an excursion may be in store.
