ze plane.


wwII plane wreck (american plane). we talked to a fijiian woman in the nearby village who was four when the plane went down in '44. she said the american got picked up by a floating plane about an hour after he crashed this one.



walking through the middle of naviti to do some snorkeling on the far shore.


this little guy followed lauren and i around for half an hour saying "bula!" over and over again.


the kids of somosomo are awesome! they run to the beach and help pull up the dinghy everytime we go ashore.

  1. Hi Mark, Is Cava the same as Kava Kava (Piper Methysticum)? Classified as a nervine, it's used as an herbal calmative...

  3. cathy, yes i assume it's the same. they call it kava here and they certainly use it as a calmative. i've also been told it has been used to treat cancer, more specifically ovarian cancer...any input on this matt? have you come across any mention of this in your years of research? also, matt and jus how may i call you? we must talk about africa and me coming there.
