World school- Vanuatu

Vanuatu




Locals put a "B" or a "T" on their private car and it becomes a bus or taxi


The guide told us there are no road rules and no speed limits






Our tour guides at a stop we made on our bus tour.
The bus tour was $29AU per person and we stopped at a Catholic church, a little market place for music and fresh fruit and  a community room for a chat with a chief about the way of life.
At the market place a man had a lizard in his hand and a huge blue coconut crab on a log! He was charging $5 for 3 photos.
There was a ladies string band who played the most delightful music and had a donation box at the front of them.
Everywhere we went people wanted donations or to be paid for what they did- even cutting coconuts and using the toilet cost money!





Another stop on the tour bus.

I think we were meant to look at the view not the childcare centre!








But all we saw was these happy, laughing children calling us over!








and we had to stop Koala from climbing the fence to go and play with the kids!




This certainly was the highlight of the tour for Koala! He did not want to leave.
This pretty little one behind him could speak English and they were giggling and chatting away and waved each other goodbye and blew kisses!




It looks like a car yard?

 It is the place people go to register their car.

We hopped off the tour bus in the city.
