Hello Yufullas,
We’ve had a pretty quiet week which has been great for catching up after the workshop and after the visitors. Took about three days just to catch up on the washing – sure do miss the washing machine thingy. It takes about an hour to do two sheets and a couple of towels – my mum has earned a bit of historical respect now I know what she was having to do back in the 1950s!
I’m off to NZ on Sunday just for a few days to attend a Facilitators Workshop with Outward Bound. I arrive on Sunday, travel to Anikiwa on Monday, get back Tuesday night and then fly back to Port Vila on Wednesday. No time for shopping and very limited time to catch up with family.
In mid July the plan is that we head down to Sunesup for a week to help with a Kindy Teachers’ workshop. This was the place we were supposed to go to a few weeks ago but couldn’t get there because the river was too high. Apparently it is now low enough to get across so we should be going on the 12 July – or at least around then some time. We’ll see.
We’ve now been here just over 3 months and it’s certainly gone quickly. The only thing bugging us at the moment is that we’re still not fluent in Bislama – I think we should be better than we are. Anyhow we have a plan – we play cards with Karen most weekends and so we are going to ask her to speak with us only in Bislama. We think that will be good for our Bislama but probably not great for our cards. Worth a try we think.
We love getting …. So big thanks to you mailers.
Back again next week

Cheers
Vic & Maryann
