Monday 28th June
Paul and Amy booked up to do a kart safari
around the island. This involved driving around the island in go-karts through
the wooded areas i.e. not using the conventional roads. They'd been warned to
wear clothes that they didn't mind getting muddy as you can return caked in mud,
so much so that you can only see peoples eyes. Thankfully though as it hadn't
been raining too much the routes weren't muddy they were just dusty so they
returned looking quite decent.
  Ready for the off!
 The roads weren't too bad
at first
  But then they got narrower and
narrower!
 They drove past a lot of old
dilapidated buildings that people still lived in
 As well as some brightly
coloured homes
  The first of four stops -
spectacular!
   Then it was off again, through
the bushes to an impressive beach
  The scenery kept changing all
the time, they went from dirt tracks to open fields with scattered palm
trees
  More impressive
views

Tongan red dirt
  Now it was Amy's turn to drive
and she made sure she shoved Paul into the bushes as much as he did to
her!
 The waves crashing onto the
shore
  The guides found some coconuts
for the pit-stop
