I managed to get an email address to ask questions, and for the information of anyone reading these posts, I thought I'd provide the following which might be helpful for them. Email address is: Sorry, Trip Advisor disallowed providing the email address. Donkey demonstrations: Times vary but normally 1100, 1200, 1230, 1430, 1530, 1630. First come first served basis. No charge. No special events on the day I visit, but if there is a special event, entrance fee is higher. No extra charges other than the museum asks for a voluntary contribution. I read mention of a bowling green on TA reviews, but now its only a grassy area. There's no internet to call for Uber when leaving, but the front desk will call a taxi. There is currently no road blocks en route to the castle (however the whole island has road improvements in various spots - a 2 year project). Hope this helps!
