Dinghy Dock, Nuka Hiva FP It is 1 am and I wake up with my wife shaking me, saying ‘Wake up, Wake up, you have to get him’ What! What is going on? I say. She says “He flew right by my face and went over behind the books.” I say, “What is going on. What flew by your face?” She says, “I think it is a cockroach, the biggest one I’ve ever seen. It flew in through the overhead hatch and landed on the bookshelf.” “Well just find it and get rid of it, “ I say. “No no, you have to do it, I am scared of i. it was so creepy . “Okay, where did it go?” And so begins the Great Cockroach Chase. My wife is a great reader of books so she has an overstuffed bookshelf on her side of the bed plus a desk covered with stuff not yet put away. so I start pulling stuff off her desk to clear the battlefield . Then start pulling the books off one by one, ready with my washcloth to grab it when it came out of hiding. There it is. There it goes. Man, are they fast! It runs behind a bag of socks before
