Breakfast!

I was able to sleep after all for the next thing I knew the first streak of sunlight was just starting to lighten the Coron sky. I know that we have a lot of island hopping to do for the day but I Ethan's booboo was troubling me. How the heck can I let him wet his toe with an open wound? I need that oral antibiotic now!

I looked around the still dark room and my eyes rested on the D1, the doctor and Ethan's mommy. She said there was nothing to worry about as long as we keep Ethan's wound tightly bound. Am I glad I bought a pack of tegaderm - those waterproof surgical bandages used in OR. However, Ethan will not just take a bath in the shower. I wonder if the tegaderm will remain waterproof even in sea water.

I went out to the dining hall and found one of the staff getting ready to board the boat to Cullon island to get the antibiotic for Ethan. It was 6:00 A.M. and she promised to be back before 8:00 A.M., before our group leaves for the island hopping tour How I wish the boat was equipped with Ferrari parts so that it could just zoom out and zoom in from and to Majika.

Breakfast was heavy - fried rice, eggs, danggit, hotdog, cereal, toast, marmalade and fresh fruits. The danggit was fresh and not the dried variety. As compliment to the fried fish, a salad of salted eggs and tomatoes was served. The coffee was brewed and the beans local and freshly ground. The coffee was fantastic. My nephew, who works part time barista at Starbucks (NJ) said so too.

As the rest of the group started to trickle the rest of the dining hall staff was put into action as they had to refill the serving plates over and over again. Boat #2 arrived with Ethan's oral antibiotic. What a relief!
