A trip to the market in Tonga - Photo Post

Here's another photo post.  We a doing good here in the Bay of  Island.  Owen's dad is visiting, so the we're all enjoying family  Been almost a year.  One bummer though, we found out that the local Opua school wants $1200 a month from poor cash strapped international cruisers to send their kids to school here.  So that's not going to happen.  That costs three times as much as a slip!

On to the pictures!

Here's a view of town from the water.


The folks in close with their boats are on mooring balls - not their anchors.


On the way to market; mother and daughter.


Here's the market.


So many fruits.  Those Americans you see back there are our friends from S/V Fugue.


This family were there every day.  Kava on the ground there.


Griffyn will play with anyone he meets, young or old.  He just loves people.


Holding down the fort.  These two boys are selling the families pineapples this morning.


That's all for the moment.
