New Toy

Today Mariah let me buy her a new toy. I am sure that she is going to love it. It is a 25 footer with twin Yamaha 140's on the back. Nothing too fancy, but more than enough to get us out to local islands and fishing holes. We also managed to snag one of the few boat slips in the city, it seems that due to construction there is a serious shortage of slips.

The guy that we bought it from is having some work done to it while we are back in the States, a detailed polishing, some new paint, new leather, and a new shade for the front. I can't wait to get back so we can start playing in the Gulf.

Bidet

So it is customary for bathrooms to have a bidet installed next to a traditional toilet. While Mariah and I have not developed a desire to utilize this feature of our new home, the animals have become quite accustomed to this.

New Ride

Well we managed to purchase one new vehicle. This is Steve's new 2005 Nissan Pathfinder. We managed to get this new from the dealer with only 60 kilometers on it. We saved a lot of money versus a 2006 model, plus we recieved a full warantry.

Driving here is a spectacle in itself. The locals are not concerned with money so they are recless, and there are so many people from Asia driving here that have never driven before. Just to add a little fun in the mix the streets are filled with round-abouts and at least half of the roadway system in the city is currently under construction. Fun Fun Fun.
