On the Tuesday we were taken by bus to
the Robinson Crusoe Island jetty where we caught a barge down the river to the
island a little off coast. We were greeted rather menacingly by two rather
crazy cannibals throwing things at us.
When we got ashore the staff were singing a welcoming
song to us as we got off the boats. We got photos with the cannabals and were
told the things we were going to be doing.
Paige, Dad and I were taken to the reef to go
snorkling and we saw a whole lot of different fish. When we got back we saw one
of the men climb a coconut tree in a matter of seconds and start throwing the
coconuts down. They cut the tops off of them and then we drank the juice.
They dug up the lovo and did fire walking, (on hot
rocks) then we had lunch while we were entertained with dancing. Because it was
Mum and Dads anniversary they got to sit right up the front for one of the
dances. The last dance was one with double ended torches and they were spinning
them around and putting their hands and feet on the flame.
Dad, Paige and I went in the water park for a bit. The
water park had giant inflatable things in the ocean and a zorb. We climbed up
the climbing thing and jumped off. We had a crab race and I won beating all the
Aussies and came first and got a shell necklace plus flowers. We had a farewell
song and then caught the barge back to the jetty and then got the bus back to
Tambua Sands.
