Fun in the sun

We have made Malolo island our home base and have found loads of things to do around here. At low tide all the reefs are exposed and you can go fill, to your hearts content, a bucket of sea grapes. They are a delicacy here and treated like caviar. We walked over to a local village and met a Fijian named Maria. We started chatting with her and before we knew it we toured her land, learned all the things you can do with a coconut, told us how to make a few dishes with her fruits and veggies in her garden and left with two full palm baskets of provisions. That night Paul made us coconut rum punches, we cooked the red snapper from the sea, cassava in fresh squeezed coconut milk that Maria gave us from her garden and baked two big Paw-Paw (Papaya) breads. Can it get any more traditional than this?

Last night we had a girls night out. They were having a local "Meke" dance at the Plantation resort so we loaded up in the dingy (Paul's Porche, LOL) and headed out for a night on the island.

All is well on Free Spirit
