Uku

With all the past trouble that was occurring in my village I took on the approach of kill them with kindness. Well I guess they found out my secret and are using it against me. Everyone has been overly nice to me.
I was given a bag of forty fresh mangos.
My neighbor has been bringing me dinner every couple of days (I'm happy even if it not my favorite food).
My youth are actually working and attending meetings.
Life is good.

Uku is defined as Diving.
Yes, I now have my certification in Scuba.
I have to say that I love it more than I thought I would. I was anticipating that I would focus so much of my energy on looking at the gauges that I wouldn't have time to admire the beauty. Not the case. I don't know how you can go down to 18 meters (59 feet) and not just be in awe.

My Dad said that I should post a few of the everyday stuff each week.
Gas prices - $T 1.87 per Liter (US$ 3.66 per Gallon).
During X-Mas we had a petrol shortage on the whole island of Vava'u. Taxis couldn't run, people couldn't do their Christmas shopping. It was a mess. We waited for a boat for about a week to deliver the supply. My friend had a relative bring a few containers on an earlier boat. I just laugh when this stuff happens. It is all part of the experience.

That is all for now. I'm heading to the office to get a few things done for an upcoming meeting.

Love you all,
Adrianne
