First, we got our island car serviced. We hadn't had anything done to the car since we bought it so it was overdue. This was a nice English speaking garage. We got a 7:30 am appointment...aaargghh. We never get up that early let alone get somewhere.
The air conditioner in our master bedroom decided to start leaking water. Rick looked at some You Tube videos and was convinced he could fix it himself. His quest was cut short because he could not get the housing off the unit. So we called an air cooling service. The technician took two seconds to take the housing off, clean the filters, pull out a clogged tube, gave it a blow (literally blew into the tube) and it was fixed.
Keeping up with the landscaping needs of the compound is a full time job. We located Marco and he is coming this week to trim all the palm trees, plant some trees that are currently in pots, and give everything a trim. I am hopeful he will come regularly to keep the place looking good. Marco runs a landscaping business out of his home that is about two blocks from our house and on the same street.
