Excited but also anxious!!!

Tomorrow I am going with Nick down to Open Bay where the company logs the timber. It is a 4 hour banana boat ride which I am not really looking forward to as it will be so hot. We will stay in the workers’ camp, eat in the mess etc so it will be a bit of a first for me. No power supply there and the generator is turned off at night so no power at all after 10pm – that means no fans or aircon!!
I am going to visit the school while Nick works and have some books and other supplies to give them. We also have some things to give the medical clinic which is on site.
Nick has been before but went down by helicopter and back by boat.
After the boat ride we had last December to get out for a holiday(airport was closed due to volcano ash!) I am a bit anxious about the trip down and back. Hopefully all will go well and we won’t hit a storm and rough weather this time and it will all be yet another adventure – who said retirement would be boring!!!!
Will let you know all about this trip when we get back on the weekend.
