River Bath, Pentecost

Hello All,
This morning after breakfast Rafal and I went to snorkel around Captain Cook Rock just south of us. There is a small reef but there is a river close by and it made the water very murky so it was hard to see so we gave up after an hour. We went to take a look at the small river and decided it was perfect for a bath and laundry. After returning to the boat we gathered up our clothes and all of us went back to the river. I took the engine off of the dingy and we carried it over to put it in the river and gave it a bath too. After we got finished we went river rafting and took the dingy out 100 feet of small rapids to the sea. That was pretty fun I must say.
This afternoon Rafal and Paula went to the village. I stayed behind and read a book. They walked for 40 minutes to the village just north of us. They said it's a bigger village and everyone was asking where they were from and how they got here. They got to see the Land Diving Tower that Pentecost is famous for. Basically Pentecost is the grand father to bungy jumping. They build a tower 100 feet tall out of what ever wood is available and bind it all together with vines and natives jump from it with vines tied on there angles. Originally it was a celebration of the Yam harvest but now they do it for visitors and yachties. They charge heaps of money to see this, usually around June, so they are pretty num to visitors afterwards. Hundreds of people come to see this every year and one a side note, the guy that made bungy jumping popular got his idea from this Island.
We will move onto Waterfall Bay tomorrow morning about 8 miles north so I will talk to you then.

PEACE
