24 Feb, Fri

Fri, 24 Feb .... at work today, and didn't do much; browsed more files, etc. ... at 2pm i left and went up to visit with Gordo Gato again .. love that cat ... i'm so glad he has a good home. this photo is almost exactly like one i took last year ... he hasn't changed met John back at the Whale Shark office and we went over some things; then i showered and walked down the street to the Driftwood, .... it IS Friday night. .... since i was so disappointed with my Fish Burger, i had to go there and get one, coz i heard theirs is really good ... and it was ! Jungle Jim was there again, and of course, Bruce, the owner. the Barefoot Band was playing there again tonight .... i am SO glad i went there, i didn't know they were playing and would have been disappointed if i had missed them. i was sitting at the bar visiting and also saw Roger, the Vet's husband... and we visited too ,,, it was nice to be somewhere and have people to talk with ..... :) the band started playing and the place was packed. they have really good food there and they were so busy, they had to stop taking food orders because the kitchen was so backed up.... a good night for the Driftwood ! i also talked with a guy, Ronnie, who's great great? grandfather was the second person on this island. he has a place east of town and said i could stop in there and stash my stuff if i wanted to snorkel in front of his place. i've wanted to rent a bike and go all the way out there; but after being robbed, i was hesitant. i think i'll take him up on his offer tomorrow. i left around 11pm and stopped at the Utila Lodge Bar right next door where they do Karaoke ... it was awful ... :( ... i had to leave, and call it a night !
