Yesterday, as usual B and I were up at dawn and had a swim before breakfast. Then dropped the dinghy in the water and headed to shore. The manager of Ratua resort, meet us on the beach and told us a bit about the resort that was owned by her family since 2016. She invited us to look around the island, which we did. We strolled along the beach, then inland where we came across the horses. Guests are able to ride along the beach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We returned to the bar where we were told how the resort came about.
A Frenchman came to Vanuatu and fell in love with the island and the locals. He owned a small village in Bali, so he disassembled the village and shipped it here. This is why the resort has a Bali feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


In the afternoon while B and I sun bathed and snorkelled from Imagine, Robert and Valerie went ashore to check out the island.
This morning it was aufwiedersehen to Robert and Valerie as they decided to spend a night at the resort before going to Luganville for their plane. We then set sail south, making our way to Port Stanley before dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
