Exploring Erakor Lagoon by Kayak


We went around Erakor Lagoon with kayaks. We took them in areas that had hundreds of mangrove trees growing along the water shore. We saw a lot of creatures like crabs, fish, starfish, jelly fish, spiders in trees and birds.

Snorkelling at Hideaway Island


The snorkelling was excellent. We saw many different kinds of fish and coral.
Hideaway Island also has the world's only underwater post office. The post office is under the floating dock in this picture and is 9 feet under water. People mail waterproof postcards.

Hideaway Island


We went to Hideaway Island one afternoon to snorkel. It is a small island with bungalows for tourists.
The boat ride only takes a few minutes.

Playing with Local Kids

We have taken many boat rides in Vanuatu to visit local islands.

President of Vanuatu at FIFA World Cup Qualifier


The President of Vanuatu attended the soccer game. He shook hands with all the players. He sat four rows in front of us in the grand stand. In this picture he is the man in the middle of the photo with a beard and glasses. A personal body goard was sitting right behind him. Everyone in this area had their bags checked for weapons before entering.
