Still in Hana Fefau Bay

Hello All,
We are still hanging out in the bay, after we got invited to church Sunday. After the services we were invited to an after church lunch. There was fish, chicken and pork with BBQ sauce that was excellent. The whole town was there and the local fisherman that invited us ended up being the local wood and bone carver. He spoke very good English so we had a nice visit with him. We went back to town today to look at all of his work and it is excellent. He goes to a convention in Tahiti 2 times a year and joins up with 150 other artists and sells his work. He is very well known through out the Islands. He showed us the easy way to open a coconut and gave us bananas right off the tree and some guava fruit. Last night we had dinner on the boat of Steve and Trish from England, we met them on Atuona when we first got here. They showed up about mid-day yesterday. Three other guys from the east coast we met in Atuona also showed up so it was like old home week. This has been a great experience here and we have been loving it. I don't know what we will be doing tonight, Tobias just left with the guys to go spear fishing. I think I will go to Steve and Trish's and see what they are doing. We will leave in the morning to Vaitahu, it is 2 miles north of us and will check all that out. It is the biggest Village on the Island so maybe we can get some fresh baguettes and a few other things.
That's all I know for now so I will talk to you all soon.


PEACE
