Day 4 
We wake to clear blue skies and very welcome sunshine. After breakfast we take the water taxi over to Luganville.
We walk through Santo Hardware onto the Main Street. The hardware is a miniature Bunnings so we check out the prices of plaster board etc – much the same as home. No one would guess we have sons building houses at the moment. The street is quite bustly with trucks carrying supplies and workers to their work sites. There are also many small taxis ferrying people about. The trick is to flag down a newish tidy looking one as some of them do not look road worthy!
After a delicious coffee at the French Cafe we buy a few more provisions, get more money out of the wall and check out the tourist info centre – where I leave my sun hat!
We had planned to have lunch at the French Cafe, but it was too early and too hot to meander about, so we find Sandy, our water taxi guy, at the wharf and head home. The cool breeze over the water is lovely to feel as we speed across the channel.
It is very hot as we amble along the path to the resort. We cannot hurry, so we notice all the wildlife around us. There are various types of skinks skittering about. Some quite small ones have an iridescent blue stripe along their backs. There are a few large black butterflies flittering about. The few birds we see darting about are swallows.
Fish mornay served in a coconut shell was absolutely scrummy.
We spotted a private little beach where we planned to paddle about but once we got home we crashed into a siesta.
Dinner at home on the deck – goodness me it was pasta again!
Despite it being a cooler night and early morning, today has been our hottest day. It was very humid and sticky making us feel quite lethargic especially after our large lunch and walk.
