Since the seller has decided not to allow us to rent until closing, we have to find another place to live. We decided on La Cruz and a condo tower on the hill. No sound of surf on the beach, but the view is spectacular. So we again packed up the car – this time an even tighter squeeze because meanwhile we have purchased furniture – an office chair and kitchen stuff that we will need for the condo. There was not an inch left!
From here you can see the red tide in the bay. A hot spell has caused the toxic algae to bloom. We had no idea that it was called red tide because its actually red!
We had been assured that we would have fiber level data service here and would be able to work. Yes and no. There is fiber to the WiFi router, but speeds are slow. Over the next two days, Dave would diagnose this to interference with the 2.4 GHz WiFi signal and all the rebar in this high rise. He decides to buy a 5 GHz WiFi router – and sure enough that got us the bandwidth we needed to be effective at work.
