Sunset at Nambawan Cafe before Mel and I settled down to watch Bird Cage at their moonlight cinema. Hilarious old movie with Robin Williams and Gene Hackman. We both forgot to put on our insect repellents but since i have quite an unpalatable blood according to mozzies, Mel became my sacrificial lamb. What would i do without you Mel? I hope you didn't get Malaria because of me.
Snorkeler's Cove on Iririki Island. I was going to jump in except for the fact that the water was too choppy (when yours truly managed to throw up while scuba diving at a location with no current whatsoever) and i didn't have sandals or reef shoes to protect me from the sea urchins. I sat there on a bench under a tree with a detective homicide fiction while waiting for the waves to calm until it hit the hour mark and went to join Mel at the pool instead. I know i know... city slicker.On Christmas, every single shop in the whole of Vanuatu was closed except for Au Bon Marche. The orphaned medical students decided to go to Mele Cascades for a picnic. Annika was smuggled in to places as a medical student whenever she went out with us.
Hideaway Island from the lookout point at Mele. Unfortunately we only found this grassy area after we had our picnic.
The snorkeling at Hideaway was fantastic. I walked into the water with bread and the fishes were swarming around me. Mel and Annika were laughing and screaming their lungs out underwater when we saw this 2 feet long fish with huge brown decaying teeth hovering just beyond my reach for bread. I swear it was giving me an evil stare that said "give me bread or i will chomp on your fingers with my bacteria infested incisors" when i didn't float bread its way.
Over the holiday season we went to so many other places. Unfortunately, most of the other pictures i took contain recognisable faces, so they shall remain for my personal enjoyment only.
