They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but they didn't tell me that was because it would take an image 1000 times longer to load when you are on a slow internet connection! I'm pretty sure that it just took 5 minutes for one picture to move from 12 to 13% loaded! I had intended to submit a 5,000 + "word" entry for today, but if we successfully load one picture, I shall be satisfied.
So, this picture is from the balcony of Strongheart House - where we sit to eat our meals or kill time.
If you can see the water just outside the fence - that's accumulated rain water - evidence of rainy season. Otherwise the beach between the house and ocean is used as a football pitch - although it also houses a "Palawa (Shouting) Hut" for community negotiation or arbitration.
Oh! I'm finally at 99%! Let's see if this picture actually loads??!!?
