French Connection

Well, work continues to be slow but luckily I've got a few VSA contacts in the know at the local maritime college. Theres a Scientific Expedition being undertaken at the moment by a bunch of French Scientists looking at marine, karst, forest and agriculture over three months in Santo. So, after having a tok tok with the head scientist, I've managed to get a little bit of work helping organise open days and writing articles for the Vanuatu papers.

My first french lesson last night brought all the parle francais back, and there's a few people to parle with : ) ... So now its just a case of trying not to mix up the Bislama with the French! haha
Have met a few french scientists, sailors and various other francophones so maybe after two years I'll have picked up two new languages! crazy.

Hopefully will get some pics on here soon... my camera is waiting for me at the customs office, so hopefully not too much red tape (yeah right). The bike is together and most of the gears are working, so am off for a ride tommorrow with the partner of one of the VSA volunteers.

Lukum yu bak agan (see you later, literally look at you back again)
