Typical stand in the market in Langurr. The rectangular packets are soya
Village dancing the first evening when they just practising.
We do our best to copy them.

We have had 3 days of informal, locally organised events and managed to hire a driver and a guide, Susan for a day for a visit to the local springs, caves, market, ATM and beaches.
The beach at Ngurbloat, apparently the second most beautiful beach in the world. It has fine white sand for miles and is a hot spot for the locals at the weekend as well as tourists.
We did a beach clean up there as one of the organised events and managed a pretty good pile of rubbish, even though it had been cleaned 3 or 4 days before. The Ministry of Tourism has started to tackle the litter problem, but like the UK, they have a huge task on their hands.
We are not sure if this sea eagle was tied to the bike, we think not.
So many things to photograph, too many to send in one blog, so further details and photos to come. We are exhausted! Some of the boats have left this morning to go to Banda, but we need a day to get ourselves organised as well as a trip to the market and another ATM.
