Well again it rained, but the real bad part was the wind. I thought Pingree had some winds but these would rip roofs right off. Since we received word of more missionaries arriving tomorrow night we needed to do a bit of shopping so we could feed them supper. The real advantage was the walking indoors. We came back from our trip and left to make visits and eat lunch. The elder who is leaving is close to some of the members and wanted to say goodbye.
Next was lunch.
Chicken and potatoes roasted in the oven, very good. Rice with mushrooms and corn, good. And everyone’s favorite octopus boiled with potatoes. The potatoes strangely are more difficult to eat the the octopus. They take on it’s flavor and are just a little awful. The food by and large was excellent and I have ate octopus several times and will continue to do so. For desert cake and bananas. Grandma and I shared a conjoined banana here are before and after shots.
We stopped for a bit of shopping on the way home then did some organizing for the new elders to have a list of people to visit. Now it really started to rain and blow. We have these electric shutters that roll up and down to cover the windows and we had to close them to keep it from blowing the windows open. I call them blast shields and the name seems appropriate. Long busy day. We love you all.

I'm skipping the octopus in my potatoes I like my potatoes to much the conjoined bananas would scare people in the USA rest of food looks delicious as for the wind the shutters and heavy tile roofs is a clue the wind really blows hard do you get weather reports your in a tropical depression start of a hurricane I suppose the Native's are accustomed to the weather
That was one unique banana :) Natalie
I love ALL forms of potatoes....but if it tastes like octopus I'll take a HARD PASS! Glad you have your blast shields (Sounds like something from Star Trek)... shields up captain!!!!
I would enjoy looking at that banana. Love you guys! Love Ashley!
Dad wants to know, do those bananas have seeds in them? Or are they seedless like ours here? Ashley!
