New Newbie
Local publishing company, aLookingGlass, has just released the second edition of BVI Newbie. You may remember the first edition of this fantastic publication came out about a year after we had moved here...
We still found it very helpful, so we had to pick up the 2012 edition to see what new information it holds. I caught our own little newbie reading it before falling asleep the other day...
One new feature in the 2012 publication is the pull out map in the back. And I love this graphically driven section on what you can expect to find on the roads here:
I have come across ALL of these "vehicles" and hazards at one time or another. Even Sir Richard Branson's controversial lemurs made the Newbie guide!
The publication also addresses something I know I get questioned about all the time - the cost of groceries!
This list is pretty accurate. Last night Michael went to the grocery store to get a few items I forgot on our last shopping trip and sure enough the bottle of wine ($7.00) was one of the least expensive items. It was less than the milk he bought, and cheaper than the detergent!

Anxious to hear Anna Drake's thoughts on the guidebook ; )
