Carribean Dreams? More like Carribean Nightmare!

Our apartment building is called "Caribbean Dreams." We have 2 apartments in a complex that was built this past April. However, they are falling apart right and left! Pipes are leaking, toilets don't flush, the circuit breakers are always popping, and the water tank is always running out. Last night the water ran out while I was washing my hair. I had to go next door to the Mills house to rinse off. Since the showers run on electricity, Andi and I have been shocked when we turn the shower off. The shower also has a tendency to smoke and spontaneously spit out water even when it is off.

There is not much else to report this week. Diving has been a blast! I finally mastered the skill of removing and replacing my mask under water without inhaling the ocean! The reefs are beautiful and we've seen so many interesting aquatic creatures. Tuesday all nine of us (4 Webers plus 5 Mills) are going scuba diving together for the first time. We are renting an under water camera and will post the pics here in the future.

Adios for now,
Lori
