Fly Harbour School

Friday, December 4
Aaron, Benjamin, and Olivia left a little bit after six this morning to walk to the other end of our island.  Today is the last day of school for all of the students in the Solomon Islands, and Fly Harbor School held its closing program.  It's about a two mile walk, and they took a lunch with them.  Aaron surprised everybody by walking - they think he needs to go by motor canoe!  He was invited to help hand out prizes for the students, and he filled his role as one of the "big men" by eating lots of food with the other leaders in the community.  The three were gone for over twelve hours, and arrived home sweaty and hungry as it began to get dark.  (The building in the picture is the school's chapel.)
