we have a room at the bottom thenstairs...three flights,,as we did not want to have air/con
the figians are all so plelasant and friendly tho that this makez ip for a great deal.
today we priced out two fan ier places with smorkling fa ilities and theywere over a thousand per personper night...australian dollars
funnily enough they asked what nationalities we were...when I asked for a quote
there are lots of birds and flowers,,,the frangipan is in bloom everywhere...we overlook a green field which every evening is occupied foot ballers practicing..(soccer)
i have developed a cold, no doubt from th freezing. us and the people around who were hacking away
this is the second dy and I am somewhat better
we went to dinner at the local yacht club, Mary discovered it on one of her walks as I tried to sleep off the. cold...
yacht sounds grand but.
it was anything but....
today we took a local bus , grubby and full of families returning from shopping...mothers nursing babies mothers many barefooted...itis odd to see school children in neat uniforms. out with bare feet
savusavu is like a third world country...we went into a hole in the wall to look at handicraft to find a very cheerful lady sitting on thr floor crossed legged, was probably 60? she was making decorations
for a wedding, gathered around her were two young girls working away
next door in another darkened room men were having their hair cut....figian cuts cost four dollars
others six!!
mary was temptd to go in and ask for a figian hair cut?!but thought she did notmhave enough hair
