Arrived Noumea; Bank Holiday as usual. But this
time with a difference - Customs & Immigration are closed for four days
until Wednesday morning!! So we have to ignore the entire ridiculous border
bureaucracy and do our own thing on shore.
Noumea is like a downmarket version of the
south of France with the usual French colonial buildings of 1970s the concrete
brutalist style, utterly without charm. But the contrast with Vanuatu is
about as extreme as it gets.
