Travel logistics

I forgot to mention that it is a bit complicated to figure out how to see things here.  Although these are islands, they still are pretty big and a bit hilly, so it is not practical to walk everywhere.  There is a shuttle from the hotel, but it's not all that frequent.  There also are town buses, but it's hard to read those schedules as I can't figure out where all the place names are. There are ferries between the islands, but they also are not frequent, and different companies run different lines.  On the other islands, each has a different situation as to number of ports, which ferries go to which ports, how you get from one port to another, where the art objects are, etc.  I have a million bits of paper, each one with a different bit of info ... a timetable, a map, a museum opening schedule, etc.  It seems one must plan meticulously rather than play it by ear .... you might end up on a some small island with no way to get back that evening, or spend hours making your way to an art site, only to find it closed.  Well, let's just say this is a good place for someone with OPD (Obsessive Planning Disorder).
