Crazy Horse - May 29
Today we spent a good part of the day waiting for the canoes to arrive from
New Zealand. Matt, Bill, Maggie, Bob, and me all sat waiting at the lagoon
for the boats to sail through the pass. They were late and we just gave up.
The Prime Minister from New Zealand was here and all the confusion was
amazing for one little island road.
Earlier Matt and I went to the Cultural Market which they have every Sat.
am. It was like a harvest festival with dancers, music, drums, food, and
crafts made by all the people from the island. There was lots of homemade
foods and fresh fruits and veggies. They were selling so many of their
homemade pareos, purses, jewelry, and quilts.
We ended up at the Aro'a Beach Restaurant and Bar for dinner and
entertainment. Joe, Judy, Jerrod were there from Brown-eyed Girl, the crew
of Ocean Jasper, Crazy Horse, and Donal from A Lady. We had a great time
being entertained by our hosts and hostesses with music, dancing, and
singing. The food was great and it was actually cool on the beach. They even
had a little fire for us. It has been a long time since I actually felt
chilly. They are supposed to have the greatest sunsets in all of the island
there. It was a little cloudy so that didn't happen. But the moon was out
and it was very lovely. So we had about 9 of us there from the World Arc for
dinner.
Tomorrow we will go to church, take a hike to the waterfall and get ready to
leave on Monday am. It will be sad to leave this island and all the friendly
folks that we have met. But I am sure that we will have some other
adventures in some other places too.
Rosemary, Bill and Matt
