Journey to Abaiang #2

Going south along the island of Abaiang, we went ashore at the home of a member family.
They were very hospitable, preparing coconuts for us. Sister Casita is good friends with the family and brought gifts and other things. The Rasmussens brought a number of books to help the mother set up a preschool.
The family's multi room home is shown here.  Above the man is preparing coconuts for us to drink.

They have rooms for sleeping and visiting.  Above on the lower right side is the kitchen.
The children are holding up their new books.  We have been drinking the water from the coconuts.  In the ceiling you can see a knife and other storage items.

The shoreline and getting ready to return to Tarawa.

We are headed back to the boat for the return trip home.  Everyone has been very hospitable and even sent us home with more coconuts.
