View from our room
After 10 days on Ofu, working, snorkeling, cooking, cleaning, watching sunset, playing cards, and generally relaxing in the sun. We hadn't had enough. Jim had left 2 days prior, and asked us, "Are you guys sure you are leaving on Friday?" We had been, but when Friday came around, we kept arguing back and forth while we were painting away.
Hard at work
About mid-day, we talked it out with Marge, and decided to stay for a month more. Called the airlines, changed the tickets, and it was done. We were to be on Ofu, until September 7th. We say that a bunch of different things helped us make the decision, but really, it was just the beauty. Oh yeah, one day the McConnel Dowell guys, the Kiwis working on the wharf, brought home a coconut crab, and a lobster. They call em coconut crabs because they eat coconuts. They have this one giant claw. The one here
The drunken coconut crab
is apparantly a really big one. Absolutely some of the most delicious crab I have ever had, sooo sweet. Or in Kiwi talk, sweet as. We will be back to civilization in a month.
