Honiara, Guadalcanal: More Scenes

---

---

So what is Guadalcanal like? Well, it's a bit difficult to explain, but I began to have some appreciation for it.


Anchoring out, I stayed on the ship for the first couple of days, but after meeting some people and getting out of the main area, it was actually pretty nice. There's loads of history and even if the locals don't give a super warm greeting at first, it got much nicer as the days passed and meeting the RAMSI folks certainly was worthwhile. I really enjoyed their company and their graciousness as they took us around to some interesting spots.

You can see a couple of photos here of local "flora and fauna" (yes, that includes beer). 😊

Our entry point
It's a shame you can't see all the stuff in the water. This photo doesn't do the pollution justice.

As you walk out of the entry point, this is the road with Lime Lounge at the end on the right.

Isn't he cool?

Great crepes and great company.

Hold your nose!

Sol Brew
This stuff is really good, if you go, try it. It's like a light Heineken.
