Last day in Kuah, so had to provision for 3 months of wanderings... Neither the skipper or the 1st mate enjoy shopping so Rene and I put together some meal ideas and I crunched the numbers.
Rene gave Drew a hand to service the generator whilst I prepared the shopping list - he tells me it's just like the engine, only smaller.
Hope I got my sums right or we'll be going hungry at some point along the way... seem to have 34 tins of assorted mushrooms anyway - anyone out there got any good mushroom recipes?? IS there anyone out there reading this??!
Ok, having bought it all, it then needed stowing, after I'd logged just which stowage had what in it. And that was after labelling each tin with its contents - incase the labels come off later! Using a spreadsheet to log everything but I think a hard copy is called for. We'll have to come up with a reliable system when it's our own boat - switching on the Apple mac everytime we want a meal?? I think not!
Walked down to the Jetty point tonight for an Indian and our usual Starbucks coffee (with internet connection)
Leaving Kuah tomorrow for the anchorage around to the north of the island - so goodbye to shower block, happy hour at the bar, and the internet.... and then it's off to Penang, wherever that is! (South I think)

Good grief! Menu planning for 3 months... I find 10 days difficult. :-D But if anyone is up to the challenge, that's you, Lesley.
Presumably you can supplement your diet with fish caught along the way? Hope so.
Looking forward to the next instalment. Take care.
