Power Outages and other good news
Wednesday, April 19th, 2006 at 10:30 pm
When the power cut out yesterday around noon-time and came back on six hours later, I was slightly surprised (as it was the first power outage I've experienced in St. Vincent), but not overly alarmed (as this happened in Grenada around once a month). However, when the power cut out today for the same six-hour block, I became slightly suspicious. Turns out these are planned outages that I had no idea about, and don't adhere at all to the planned times. Oh well, Caribbean time, I guess… 
Anyways, looks like we have two more power outages the next two days to look forward to. 
In other news, yesterday I noticed all the major potholes on the highway were marked with spray paint. Today, believe it or not, all the rim-busting potholes were actually filled in. Too bad that was a few months too late…

what’s the point of that?
They turn off the power once or twice a year to inspect/repair the lines…
