Thursday 7 October, weather been overcast and reasonably warm looks like we will miss the rain. Mountains hidden today but sea is calm but is still dirty no good for diving but may clear over the weekend. Hope to get our craypots in the water tomorrow and be harvesting by saturday weather permitting. Motel half full at present after a good couple of days averages 75% occupancy which is great for this time of year. Whales in the bay again today so everyone going on whale watch is seeing a few. Seal swim started again this week seems to be a few partaking. Elections this weekend and our current mayor is not seeking re-election so interesting times ahead but the Green Globe Policy is not in danger.

Stunning morning today with no breeze and the sun is well and truly up. The sea is dead calm just like a lake and not a cloud in the shy so the mountains have a slight bluish tinge and the remaining snow gives a great view. Fairly quiet last night considering our motel is only a couple of hundred yards from the Big Top but today 3000 people will arrive at the venue hungry and thirsty.
