A fantastic day Indian came down did conjuring tricks, good too, then he had a cobra snake and a mongoose fight to the death, unfair fight though the snake had no chance at the speed the mongoose moved. Then out fishing on the sea. The boat consisted of 5 shaped logs lashed together with rope, 3 more curved pieces formed the bow. Only lashed together but it handled beautifully. Rowed out 1 and ½ miles with 2 of the village fishermen in there loin cloths, then cast our line, good catch Bev and Baz spewed up, 2 stingrays 1 eel and lots of fish, rowing back the boat surfs in on the waves and rides up to the beach it was really great. Then after a freshwater wash at the village pump. Rice wine and eat our fish, very satisfying.
