James, Ashley, and Henk have gone downtown to run errands. (James and his family have been working here since ’86). Traffic has increased since we were here three years ago, so it took half an hour to cover the four km to the bank.  

After getting served we headed toward ‘China town’. We decided to have lunch there at a road side BBQ place. The chicken and rice were delicious and the hot sauce to go is lip burning hot! 

We left the car there and walked to an automotive shop for steering wheel fluid and a few streets over to find us some halogen replacement lamps. It is fun to watch James barter in fluid Pidgin! 

Another stop was at a tv repair shop and from there we visited the recording studio at the RC diocese offices. It will give us an idea what will work when we start on our own here at the centre.

We had to pour almost half a liter of steering wheel fluid into the reservoir: no wonder it was so very noisy! Silas (our resident Solomon Islander car mechanic) had removed the battery from that same vehicle to charge it properly. With everything back in its place we headed back to the airport: no suitcase and we filled out another ‘missing suitcase’ report.

We had supper with the Choates’…after playing Quiddlers…fun as always!


Paul Unger in the meantime had received a phone call from the airport that they were expecting our suitcase to arrive the following morning at nine.

Although it is quite noisy outside during the night is hasn’t bothered us yet: roosters, dogs, the occasional cat and the constant hum from the fishing fleet mother ship with its refrigerated cargo holds.

We arrived at the airport twenty past nine on Saturday morning; perfect timing as the last passengers were going through customs and we could see our suitcase on the carousel! Ten minutes later we were back in the car and on our way home (after some quick shopping).


Great to unpack..even the cheese had made it!

Henk went down to the workshop to root around for door knobs and locks…it is quite a bit messier than the way he had left it three years ago and hopefully he’ll have some time to straighten things out.
