rtender. i always order a rum punch at every island bar i visit...so,
did that. the guy fixed one to go, charge was $8 (yeah, tourist resort
prices...it was $12 at tiamo) and i gave him a $20 bill. he didn't
have change, so he went to the resort front desk. they didn't have
change either! i had $7, but other than that, nothing smaller than the
20. so, i told the guy i'd give him the 7 and he could trust me to
come back with the balance and a tip, or i'd give him the 20 and i'd
trust him until i returned. he chose the $7. that sorta sums up the
place and the locals we met.

Mmmmm. Eight + eight is sixteen, from twenty = a four buck tip. Easy.
Don't do much drinkin', do ya?

d;o)



couldn't stay for and didn't want 2 drinks...in a hurry to get back
after a day of fishing, didn't want 2 drinks - just wanted to sample a
rum punch , no one else wanted a drink, willi was waiting in the car
accepting my last minute request to check out the bar and to get a rum
punch, and... i drink just the right amount, thank you very much!
