Staff Xmas Party

Our first year on The Island is drawing to a close. Throughout the year we have be assisted greatly by some Pohnpeian locals. We have Monica who comes and helps out with the cleaning and washing a couple of days a week. The boss has Elery who does the same at his house. Francisco and Eddie help us out with 'boat advisory' services and Sonstar and Brandon do a great job keep the compound grounds looking great. So as a sign of appreciation there was a BBQ under our house for all of their families. We set up the slip and slide and opened up the pool. The kids had a great time and it was nice to sit back and relax with the people that have worked so hard for us this year.

Monica, Dean, Scott and Francisco watch the two 'peas-in-a-pod' Jaxon and Josh.

These two young lads were more than happy to take over cooking duties on the BBQ. They giggled like little girls when Scott poured beer on the onions telling them it was a secret Australian recipe. They then provided us with much amusement when they pretended to be drunk while eating the onions on their hotdogs.

Away Jaxon, away.

The slip and slide was a massive hit for everyone.

After lunch it was down to the pool for all the kids and the few brave adults on life guard duty.

The 'peas' together again while Nic took one of Sonstar's daughters for boogie board ride.
