A night out...

If you know me you probably know that I really don't like going out, smoke, loud noise, big crowds, all of it tends to rub me the wrong way. However, sometimes dealing with all of this has its rewards. Last night we got home from a dinner function and we were asked to come out for a glass of wine with some of our friends one of which is also the former Deputy British High Commissioner and now GM of a local high end resort Ngala Lodge. After a couple glasses of wine in the open air restauraunt overlooking the ocean we went into the more touristy area to another outdoor bar The Green Mamba we had a couple rounds with the owner of the place, who we actually saw last week on our boat trip. He was actually shooting a worldwide fishing series with National Geographic when we saw him out on the river. Well after talking for a few minutes it came out that I brew beer and it just so happens he has a microbrewery system on its way from Germany and he essentially offered me the Brewmaster job on the spot. We also met some people from, Germany, Denmark, and St. Lucia. This place is an interesting melting pot of culture and personalities, strange considering its one of the smallest, poorest, and least developed countries in the world. We shall see if the microbrewery is fact or fiction.
