October 4 Raro

SUN!!!
We are out of money so Juha, our Finnish friend offers to take me into town on his scooter.

Note to future self:
a) Do not get on a scooter with no helmet on
b) Do not get on a scooter in which the speedometer does not work
c) Do not get on a scooter where there are pot holes littering the road
d) Do not get on a scooter with a crazy Finnish man (who happens to looks like Silas from the Da Vinci Code movie).

After getting back alive, Net and I go to 'our' Island and do the Glamour shoot. NOW before you start thinking soft lighting and weird porno poses, Glamour happens to be a magazine. They have a competition every issue whereby you take a picture in some exotic location with Glamour magazine. After much arguments about who would pose for the picture, I drew the short straw and posed with the magazine. Shame the sky was overcast, but never the less I better win!

After that we go snorkelling. There are tonnes of fish to see. It's really good snorkelling ground.

We go back to shore and find some of our fellow hostellers and spend most of the afternoon looking for coconuts and cracking them open. It's not easy work and takes Phillipe, our Swiss friend about half an hour to open one. Well done mate!

Go to one of the hotel resorts and take advantage of happy hour cocktails!

This world is so small. Net and I are sat at some cafe and we see some man we reckonise. It's our guide from Franz Josef glacier. We say hi to him even though he doesn't remember us.

The Crazy Dog
There is a crazy dog who keeps following us. Throw things at it, it doesn't go and fetch. Kick water at it and it goes mental. Just jumps. Looks like he can keep doing that all day - just jumping after water.
