This is Paula. And Me. In Vanuatu. Oh, yea!
It was very exciting heading off to the airport to pick Paula up.....I may have got there ridiculously early.....and since then we have been checking out the Vila sights. Smolbag boys fire dancing on the beach, snorkelling, sailing, diving, eating....and enjoying the hot weather. (well, I am. Secertly Paula does also....she just hasn't admitted it yet...) I have enjoyed getting back into speaking Bislama and Paula is fast picking it up.
A visit to the underwater post office is on the list of must do things....
Friendly fish - enjoying eating coral and flippers.
Mele waterfalls - you can't see it in the picture but there are beautiful clear pools, smaller waterfalls and general good stuff. Nice jungle walk to get there...sweet deal that we passed a whole bunch of people leaving as we arrived so had the place to ourselves for a while....before a few more tourists came along.
And the challenge activity for the week - off for a scuba dive. Paula touched Nemo - several times! Woop Woop. Shes also glad she didn't die. I turned around to see her holding the instructors hand at one stage....he looked stoked!!
Hanging with some turtles tomorrow. Have been able to also get out to Smolbag where I used to work and say hi to people there - Paula tested her Pottery skills which proved to be quite good....and we have been promised more island dresses to take home with us on our departure....lol
Great to be here hanging out together!
