The cockroach, the lizard and us

Night before last we had a bit of a fright, we were brushing our teeth milling around our hotel room, then suddenly Amy saw something on the wall, I screamed before I looked. It was a massive cockroach, not knowing what to do, but knowing this was probably something we shouldn't be screaming about on a Pacific island Amy sheepishly went down to reception to ask for some help. A nice man called Jim came and after a bit of mockery some flailing round the room the cockroach was finally captured. Phew. We did quite well and got into bed without too much worrying! 

Our accommodation otherwise is really nice we have two single beds in a room with air con. An en suite toilet and shower and our own microwave and fridge. We have tv with minimal channels but it's nice to have on while we're heading off to sleep as the pool bar tenders like to play the Beatles on repeat until about 11pm! We're struggling with our climate control, we often wake up too cold, turn the air con off then wake up sweaty! It's embarassing that a luxury is causing us such trouble! 

We have a communal kitchen called the 'baby DOCs' kitchen, it used to have a microwave a big fridge a stove a sitting area with a Tv and lots of crockery but it seems of all the hotel the baby docs kitchen seems to have suffered the most. Wholst completely understandable this is a bit frustrating as food is a lot more expensive here than we anticipated so cooking our own food was to be a necessity rather than a once In a whole thing. We have managed in our room with our microwave having jacket potatoes and baked beans, and cheese and ham sandwiches for lunch ( I had gluten free crackers which i was super surprised to find here!)

My noodles heated up by the hotel he'd because we've got no stove!

It was actually quite nice 

Amy had 'bowl noodle!'

We're off to find some nice food and a beach today. Wahoo. It's so hot, amys been swimming. Ive been sunbathing (a little bit of swimming) write more soon!!
