Australia Day Function

Nic and I were a little puffed after our day on the water, but duty called and we had to go to the official Australia Day function hosted by the Australian Ambassador to Micronesia Susan Cox. Scott had about 45minutes to shower, shave and get there to complete the preparations by the time the boat and fish were all cleaned up. It ended up being a pretty big deal with over 200 guests, including the acting President of Micronesia, heaps of National Senators, and Ambassadors from the five other Embassys on Pohnpei. The Bi-Lateral coorporation between Australia and Micronesia seems to be extremely high on the agenda for K Rudd and his team. A great night with heaps of traditional Australian and Local food. Scott felt a little ordinary this morning after indulging in the feel VB and Tooheys and kicking on to a local night spot for a few more. Today was a long day.
