Well, I have left the tranquil wind-swept island for the beach town. I had no great expectations. However, it still is a shock to the system. For a beach town, it is better than some. I have definitely seen worse. It has yet to rival Asia or Mexican beach towns. Still, there are the ubiquitous beach bars, the bathing suit and surf shops, the kiosks with hand made friendship bracelets and coconut necklaces, sunglasses and other beach paraphenalia. Hotels and restaurants abound. Even fancy real estate advertisements. Accomodation is expensive and nothig can rival the pretty little room I left behind on the island. A good lesson in impermanence.
I am looking for a swimmng beach. Given that this is the Pacific coast, this demands a bit of research. The town beach is just down the street. Small waves. Some people were swimming in it today but it doesn´t attract me.
