Today 17 of us piled - literally - into our 2 cars and headed to the beach for the day. Cathy's family rarely gets out of Honiara as they have no vehicle and in fact during the ethnic tensions nobody could drive out of Honiara so they hadn't been to the beach for years - and never been to Bonege......so off we headed with BBQ plate, firewood, kayaks, 5 adults, 5 teen agers and 6 kids and 1 baby and a picnic of rice, cassava, sausages, watermelon and Carl's birthday cake!!!
What a ball everyone had. The kids of course are great paddlers from time in the village so headed off doing crazy things in the kayaks, even Mum - Freda had a ride on one and a swim. Was just great for the kids to get out and have fun as most Saturdays are spent at the house hanging around or sleeping.
Took lots of photos to record the day as photos are a rare thing here and then finished the day by taking a family photo of Festus and Freda and their kids.
Hopefully this will be the first of many fun Saturdays together
