Went to look around the local village. visited the school which was really good! kids sung loads of songs and danced for us! so basic where they live........and you wouldn't want to have to visit the doctors surgery!! no-one has any teeth here! don't think they have a dentist! went on to some caves inside a mountain! they are filled with rain water so you can swim around but to get into each cave you have to swim under the water and come up on the other...

left the hotel on a big yellow coach with no windows!! headed down to the harbour to yet on a big yellow boat which takes us out to the island! (they like yellow here!!!) had the best banana ice-cream ever! was so hot on the boat.......saw where they filmed celebrity love island!! stayed at an island in the north called nacula.....the beach was amazing! tiny place where they always remeber your name! they beat a drum for each meal time and everyone sits...

arrived in the middle of the night ( laura, janine, jamie and me) and climbed into the top bunk where i passed out in seconds!! there was a huge frog in the shower in the morning! had a full english to celebrate our arrival though which was great after the rubbish food in the cook islands! mainland not nice! booked our boat passes to get out to the islands and looked aroud at all the cannibal stuff (they used to eat people here.......scary!) janine...

mossie bites - improving! laura suddenly realised we were all leaving tonight instead of tomorrow!!!! something to do with crossing the date line!! ......lost a whole day of my life apparently! spent the day snorkelling and then went for a meal. had a lovely send off by all the people at the hostel.....so sad to leave!!! airport departure lounge was a garden!!!!! had space to go to sleep on the plane though which was great! on to fiji!!

mossie bites - not getting any better! went to island night! learny how to tie my sarong to make about 5 different outfits! ate loads of food, not sure what half of it was!!! .........and treated myself to chocolate fudge cake afterwards!!!! was only drinking a liitle due to antibiotics but had a really fun night dancing away with everyone!
