07.31.15 Visiting Yacht

There is a yacht in the lagoon that is taller than the land anywhere near it. Yesterday morning this yacht appeared and anchored just off Tomil and O'Keefe Island. It has all the bells and whistles - helicopter, launch, jet skis. You name it. It is beautiful and rumor has it it belongs to a Russian billionaire. Do not know for sure. But about ten young men and women took the launch from the yacht into Colonia and were at the Mnuw and O'Keefe's Bar and Grill. The helicopter was flying yesterday and today, it must be a nice aerial view of Yap. And of course jet skis and power boats were out as well. It dramatically changes the view of the lagoon and ocean.
The FSM police boat is tied up at the retaining wall just outside of my apartment and a US Coast Guard ship was at the dock yesterday morning. What a busy little place we have here. And next week some Chinese doctors will  be in town. Hard to contain the excitiement!



A little dragonfly. There are quite a few at our park. I have a lot in my gardens at home, so it was really nice to watch them with the same behavior as at home - landing on the top of old stems or branches.
