Vila Central Hospital, Vanuatu
Mel Euhus Oh no! I hope she recovers soon, poor little chicken! Keep safe guys xox
Amanda I'm glad she's okay... but it's worth noting that the majority of Vanuatu - the parts the tourists don't usually get to see - is still a third world country. You're lucky they had the saline to spare and lucky that Shiann is white and Australian. While we were living in Vila, I got to meet a doctor - and no, he had no fancy white coat either - who had to decide on a daily basis who was more worthy to give his limited supplies to. So, while you're enjoying all the tourist delights, spare a tought that you're only seeing what they want you to see.

Nicole Doherty Aww poor Shiann! Glad she was looked after well and is recovering! Tell her if it helps, when we went to the falls 5 years ago it was quite a hike up to them and then when we got there we realised there was only a tiny trickle anyway!! I'm loving seeing all your pics of Vanuatu though, it brings back lots of memories!

Mel Euhus Hi Therese, David, Shiann & Chase! So jealous, wish I was there!!!! Will have to convince Kev to take me there one day. This blog idea is awesome btw, I'm only really commenting here to see if it works for ya! Looking forward to tomorrow's adventures!! Love Mel & Co Thanks Mel & Co! Yeah, it's a great site, I found the iPhone app while driving to Sydney. I can actually write the blogs etc on my phone without an internet connection, or service provider and then upload them to the net when I have WiFi, so it's cheap too!
