On Sunday we had a welcome ceremony on the quay where we
were treated to a wonderful selection of all the local fruits, and in the evening we had a Hima’a which is a
traditional feast of pig wrapped in banana leaves and roasted all day in a pit in the ground. We were also entertained by the local men and women who
performed their ‘pig dance’ for us accompanied by a group playing traditional drums made of complete tree trunks ornately
carved.
