Our truck ride from the village

After two great weeks in the village, we got back on a truck for the trip to Auki. Eliana spent most of the time sleeping on my lap (as pictured above). The most exciting part of our journey was that we had a flat tire about 15 minutes after we left the village. It couldn't have been a better place for a flat tire!
Ellie got to sit on the beach and enjoy the view of the waves. It was sooooooooooo beautiful!
The flat tire also happened to occur right next to the house of one of our friends who died while we were away, so we were able to visit his grave and talk with his family which was very special.

Just a note: We've been back in Honiara now for almost two weeks, so this post is a little bit behind...

Neat picture of your sister in law. That hibiscus flower is huge! Don't remember seeing that color in BD-they seemed to have pink and red.
