Inspired by Pirates!
Just watched the latest 'Pirates of the Carribbean!' and cannot help but get all excited by the way 'Tiger Blue' is coming along in Makassar. The decking is all starting to go in, we are ahead of schedule and they are hoping to get her in the water by September for the interior fit out. Cannot wait- designing our own flag now and dreaming of adventure on yonder seas already! I will be uploading a few pictures soon for you to check out how she is going.

Fire on Pangkor!
Last weekend a fire devastated 16 shophouses in Pangkor Village. Our trusty little mini market, our ikan bilis shop, pareo store and other souvenir shops all reduced to charred bits of wood. Fortunately no one was hurt. Our sympathies go out to all involved. Reconstruction is underway already and our Prime Minister is visiting as I type, to view the damage firsthand.

Tennis Court!
The construction of our new tennis court has started. It will be located under the bamboo grove at the entry to our property, at the start of the road leading up to Tiger Rock. Decisions on night lighting, fencing etc. all made. Guests can play this summer! We will also be constructing a proper office nearby which will be perfect for all Mohan's admin work, as well as for guests to get on line.

Indian Festival!
On the weekend of the 2, 3 & 4th March 2007- the largest Indian festival on the island. A large part of the island population takes part & many Indians from all over come onto the island- a many as 40,000 people- to take part in 'chariot' pulling where spikes & hooks are pierced into the body, ropes attached & chariotss pulled to the temple. This all happens on Pasir Bogah beach- it is a great atmosphere & you get to see devotees undergoing trances before they accept any piercing. It is safe, a great photo opprtunity!
