Rose early. Wrote up, read, took coffee, took breakfast.
I did backups after breakfast then snorkelled after an hour’s interval. Really easy snorkelling – lake is like a massive paddling pool. Loads of fish to see. We intended to snorkel from one beach to the other, but I lost my bearings around the rocks, thought I’d gone too far, so went back a bit, realised we hadn’t gone too far and then we decided to snorkel back. Water mostly warm but in some dark pools around the rock surprisingly cool.
Lunched a little late – bread with balsamic and olive oil, followed by salad nicoise. Coffee.
Michelle granted us permission to see the honeymooners’ rock room. Realising that we have probably had enough sun, we then relaxed in our room, reading, resting etc all afternoon.
(Daisy stopped off in the shop between lunch and room, buying bangles and kikoi towels).
Got ready for evening and came down early for drinks. A party of tour guides arrive that afternoon and the staff buzzed around them.
Just prior to coming down, we had a lot of water gushing and I run down to alert the team about the burst pipe, but it was just the overflow in overdrive.
Dinner comprised parmigiano (parmesan cheese, aubergine, pasta and a rich tomato and balsamic sauce) followed by chicken on a bed of mash with sugar snap peas, similar to dinner one.
Very pleasant evening and early night. I managed to pull the mozzie net slightly loose!
