The rain did stop.


- for a while anyway.
I got plugged in, set the voltometer going in the right direction, (charging the batteries for the un-techies) got the wifi sorted, found a big supermarket tucked out of site in the harbour, found a cashpoint at the other end of town, went back to the supermarket to get some change and then got my washing in the coin operated machine. Phew.
In the process I had a very pleasant walk round town and have come to a few tentative conclusions about this strange little country:
It's rich - everywhere there are smart buildings, good tarmac roads, new tunnels.

It's egalitarian - no big posh houses
It's tasteful - Farrow and Ball eat your heart out, these are very trendy colours:

It has plenty of hydro - the two power plants in this little town supply the whole of the main island.

It has a healthy fish farming industry - no lice or pollution here.(In the distance)
I like it.
