Makongai school

The school teacher slept on this bed.

The school children sang and danced for us. I think they liked that more than their lessons.

Makongai village

There was a turtle sanctuary on Makongai, but it closed. There are still baby turtles in the gray well below.



The building above is the kava drinking place. Kava looks and tastes like dishwater. It apparently has some sort of effect, but I have never drunk enough of it to notice any.

Makongai leper graveyard

There was a notice that the upkeep of the graveyard was paid for by the French government in honour of the French nuns who worked in the leper colony.
