The people are very innovate, and make the most of what they have...

The joke here is that thes people have a balanced life - but in order to keep their balance they have to SMILE.
The scenery was also gorgeous.
This is in the rural area...

This is on a small island we visited. On the way over to this island we caught an ancient ferry, which ended up being quiet scary because it became quiet rough and we weren't sure the ferry would hold out. A huge pod (?) of dolphins was swimming with the boat, but despite taking heaps of pictures I don't get a single picture of a dolphin - just lots of empty ocean!!!

| from a sand bar, looking back to the bigger island - with a volcanoe in the background | this is a marker for the sunken cemetry - in the late 1800s a volcanic erruption burried this cemetry, but apparently it makes for a really interesting dive site with all the tomb stones below. |

| this massive church was also burried by the volcanoe - this is whats left of the roof structure, the rest is underground | and then someone built this chapel inside the remains |
