Hamish posts …. Today I went with a man called John on two catamaran trips. On the first trip we went to an island that has lots of pawpaw trees. I asked John to get some and so we found some ripe ones and John opened two with a sharp piece of wood and we ate them together. I also brought four, home for the rest of the family and we ate one for dinner tonight. My second catamaran trip with John went for 2 1/2 hours! We went all the way to an island called Erakor where there is a fancy resort. On the island we drew pictures in the sand and I drew a necklace with a starfish for a stencil. Most of the time on the catamaran we lay on our tummies and John steered with his feet. He sang songs and we chatted. Near the end of the trip another man called Roy joined us in a motor boat and John held onto the motor boat to make us go faster. I learned some bislama today – like ‘hureup hureup’ and ‘da ya luk the cadamaran?’. I did like it very much and John was great because our second trip went for two hours after his shift finished. Tomorrow morning he said he will take me fishing … I can’t wait !
