    Day 456: Kiritimati

    Jul 2 - Plan another snorkeling trip tomorrow. Today all three of us take the route I took yesterday morning, around the north shore of the lagoon to a point where it is easy to access the high-tide beach.

    Just about high tide, when the inner part of the shore also floods, leaving just a line of sand.

    No power this afternoon and evening, and only water in the sink. We tough it out until late, when both showers and electricity return. Even when available, the internet here blocks my ability to do much with email or text messaging. Random internet sites also blocked, so advancing my entries on this site are nearly impossible.
