The kitchen is fantastic, plenty of space, fridge, stove, microwave and small griller - all electric except for the stove. We have already learnt that you keep an eye on the gas bottle level. One drawback is that there is no hot water in the kitchen, only the bathroom. No problem, just boil the jug.
These are the two spare bedrooms - willing and waiting for guests! You get a real cell like experience when sleeping in the one below - bars everywhere.
The main bedroom with the now famous bed base, the one that actually took over two weeks to make and we still do not know why although we did hear the term 'manana' quite a few times - tomorrow!
The back yard is slowly taking shape, the pots seem to be catching although one herb pot has failed dismally and I have yet to find out the culprit. We are soon returning to the Acho plant market to purchse some grass, it comes in one meter squares and there are plenty of taxi drivers ready and willing to cart it back to our place.
We have converted a small space into our clothes line, it seems to work at this time of the year. We will wait and see what happens when the weather gets cooler - if ever! Most houses have their clothes line on their roof tops, the owner of our place has offered to put one up for us, we will wait and see - and definitely not hjold our breath waiting!
Our bathroom is fine and has abundant hot water for good showers, what else could you ask for? Well Marion would kill for a bath tub!

is preparing some of the local corn, as you can see it comes very well wrapped in its own leaves and is quite white in colour compared to the Australian version - still very nice with heaps of butter!
