My Month in the Caribbean (Dominica: Day 11)

December 17, 2009.
Travelling up or down Dominica’s mountainous roads on foot is not easy. Then again, travelling in a car is not particularly easy either. For the human body, heat is the main factor. Asphalt at noon is unbearable and the climb is steep. That I arrived at every destination, repeatedly, and without ever passing out is still a happy mystery to me.
Note: I write about transportation for a number of paragraphs. Skip below to the header, “Don’t Go Chasing Waterfalls” if you want to jump straight to the rainforest hike portion of this day.
Vehicles must traverse these same roads, roads that are so narrow that it seems like magic when two vehicles manage to pass without a collision. And then there are the switchbacks. Experienced drivers here know to pull to the side and honk their horn at the start of a switchback. You can’t see who may be coming down or up, and with the roads being as narrow as they are, its the only way to safely traverse the curves without running the risk of crashing into a vehicle coming in the opposite direction. An accident here is not an accident in a city like Toronto where there’s help and any number of hospitals close by. There are few hospitals on the island. Emergency services are limited. Getting to you could take time, that’s if you don’t go over a cliff, which are terrifying drops into nothingness, and virtually everywhere.
I don’t recall seeing many railings. Much of the roadsides are open with a wall of monstrous bamboo plants and trees shielding your sightline from the reality of what lies below. The few times we drove in areas where the plants had been cleared were absolutely petrifying. I could barely look when walking, but moving fast in a vehicle… who needs a Six Flags

Monday 3rd & Tuesday 4th April 2023 – Free afternoons!!
The clients that I was at both these mornings only need me for a half day at this time of year. Give it until next month and I’ll be back to full days. But that means I have the afternoons to myself. So after popping along to our local independent garden centre to buy 6 more bags of compost and running a few other errands, I was then home in time for lunch and the entire afternoon was spent in my garden doing all sorts.

Should You Put Silverware Pointed Up or Down in the Dishwasher?
It’s an age-old debate that’s almost impossible to avoid when living with another person: Does silverware go up or down in the dishwasher? And is there even a right answer? Since the popularization of the dishwasher, how to load this appliance has been a hot point of contention, particularly when it comes to silverware. Should silverware be rinsed first? Should you organize each utensil so like is grouped with like? Should you use the silverware basket or the rack, if your dishwasher is a newer model? Some people are adamant that silverware should be placed handle-up, while others insist on handle-down—but those aren’t actually the only options.
