We had a few days sailing in the Solomon Islands with visits to Ghizo Island and Honiara on Guadalcanel. The war buffs, and there are lots on the cruise headed out to check the famous war sites but in fact little remains. We spent each day checking out the local towns and villages.
Very few cruises make it to Ghizo Island so the locals also came out to check us out! It is very quiet and we enjoyed real interaction with local people.

It was very hot so the singers and musicians welcomed us from the shade of the welcome sign.
The older generation keep the traditional culture alive! The red teeth are from betel nut.

The seaweed stall. Looks like lettuce!
Poor little fish!
Gail and her hammock. Just the place to watch the ship just off the reef.

We should have organised for you to visit PM in Honiara, though she would have wanted to take you scuba diving.
