When the ship comes in...

Often heard around the Raro expat community several times a month...
"The boats in, do your shopping soon!"
The arrival of a container ship in port resembles the supply truck arriving at a refugee camp, except the masses will be tussling and fighting their way through the CITC Supermarket for the best produce and products.  The shelves of the supermarket prior to the ship arriving reminds me of the movie Repo Man, with Dean Stockwell and Emilio Estevez, where the supermarket shelves are covered with generic white containers saying "Food", "Drink", etc.  except in our case they say "Pams", or "Budget".  Don't we take choice for granted sometimes?

Anyway, on my way into work this morning I noticed the ship is in so I'm very excited!  As I keep saying, it's often the simple things in life that bring the most joy!

Here's some more photos of George's Raro life.   Milly to follow soon!  Enjoy!
