Living and life in the bush in Santo Vanuatu
Fishing from a fresh water pond 
The fishing was good we caught nine 


It was light a fire, grate some coconut, and cook our catch, in the bush after church service. 



                                                  Then enjoy some more MANGO


 Gloria spent a night in Luganville to catch up with friends,  and some 
who were helping out with the distribution of relief supplies to the evacuation centres. 
There were 56 camp site areas, located at schools, churches and Rural areas. to look after the Ambae village people.
                          This is the main depot, Red Cross centre at Samna Province in
 Luganville Santo where the supplies are distributed from.





Here I met up with Brenda Luan a youth worker ,who registered to offer help. 
She came to NZ last year with the PCV youth, to attend  the youth workshop 
sponsored by PCANZ Phil King, Neville and I hosted the team in Christchurch, 
great to see her again



Food storage supply and distribution going through the NDMO


 Supplies, and aide, had arrived from Australia, New Zealand, and New Caledonia
supplies of Rice, water, crackers, noodles, cooking oil, salt, toilet paper,sugar
   local Island kai kai, vegetables and fruit, were been loaded on the truck
 to go to the tent sites.
The Chinese shops in town were also very generous in supplying items .

  These are a few of the tent sites where the Ambae people are living


Gloria got to meet some of the Ambae people before leaving Santo
It was great listening to their story's 
The morales high and everyone was in good spirits.



Then it was time for some sight seeing at the 
blue hole


and a wee swim at Port Orly and Champagne beach
