scarves and jackets, but now we are right there with them. We have definitely adjusted to the climate and we actually think 65 degrees is cold. We are going to die when we go back home. And just to think about the water in Cali makes us shiver.
Aunt Roxanne paid us a visit in mid-May. She actually thought it was humid and as she was fanning herself, we were unpacking our long sleeves. We had a fabulous time entertaining her for 10 days. Aunt Roxanne and Liss after a wet boat ride from Sigatoka
She got exclusive tours to Liku, our pristine beach on the other side and the limestone caves where we went for a nice swim in glowing candle light. She also helped us with our Saturday class, reading, blowing bubbles, and trying our first jump rope out. Everyone still thinks she was Drew's sister no matter how many times we try to explain. She was our savior stocking us up with some much needed goods and she was our lucky charm to get our electricity running again.
Aunt Roxanne reading to the village kids
We have been teaching like crazy these last few months. Luckily, Aunt Roxanne and Aunt Lynne's friend Marty from Australia gave us art supplies so the children have been having a blast painting and coloring. Titi and Mala are our biggest takers trying to come over everyday for more rokaroka (coloring).
Drew played his first rugby game last week and fit right in except for his pale white skin. Even though he doesn't understand the rules all that much, they really encourage him to play. We think it may be a source of comedy for the fijians to watch the tall, clueless, white guy get creamed.
We are finally going to be building some tangible projects next week, so the villagers are very excited. A wonderful family from Australia donated money and we will be putting it towards the village and a workshop. We love and miss you all. Until next time, stay healthy.
