More pomeloes for breakfast. Then it was time to go exploring. We jumped in the dinghy and crossed the bay to another island. This village is richer than the ones we had just visited further south. They had boats with outboard motors and their houses were made of concrete blocks with reinforced steel. They also had cell phone coverage and a satellite dish (tv reception). We were sown around by a very proud father. This afternoon they were having their version of an engagement party. His daughter is getting married next month in Port Vila. So the village was putting on a celebration this afternoon. He invited us to return this afternoon to join them.
We then headed off to another small island but couldn’t find anywhere to land safely. So we motored across to another island with a beach and a rustic resort. Nanwut Bungalows was built by Jack. For anyone interested it’s 2500 vat per person per night including breakfast. Call Jack, Url Island, Vanuatu, phone 5252315. He has had only one set of people since Covid.
His grandchildren were there and had caught 7 fish from the beach. Jack gave us a pawpaw some pomeloes and cracked open a coconut for us to drink.
Back on Imagine B and Alex were inspired by the kids and decided to try fishing for lunch. I made a ham sandwich. B did catch a fish, but the hook was bigger than the fish. Everyone had sandwiches for lunch then we relaxed for the afternoon.
