It was great that he had some fun as it is pretty hard for someone his age to sit still for long periods of time.The local kids were great at helping him around and holding the dog so he could pat it. 2.

Here was the big market with is open 24 hours per day.The market is full of fresh produce of all sorts depending on the seasons.There is even some live produce available such as chicken and crabs.Because the market is always open, people live and sleep between the stalls with their families.It is also the place that people go to during lunch to buy food to eat.There was a whole row of women sitting their waving their arms to keep the flies away from the food.Also, I don't understand why the western world is spending so much effort and resources on finding cures to diseases such as cancer, diabeter, high blood pressure, arthritis, obesity, athma etc. since they here in Vanuatu already has one magical cure that takes care of them all. It was cheap and easily available at the market and it doesn't matter how much you buy, the price is always the same.They were also selling improvised charcoal stoves bringing back memories of Kenya where everything was cooked on a Jiko's.While we were outside the market discussing where to go next this woman and her little girl walked past. The little girl let go of he mums hand and walked over to Aiden (who was sitting in his pram) and gave him a BIG kiss...Aiden is such a chick magnet. << Older posts Newer posts >> Newer posts12...404142434445464748...9293Older posts SearchInclude comments in search Newsletter Get notified when a new post is published.
