ANZAC Day in Port Vila
W got up early (4.30am) and walked to the dawn ceremony at the cenotaph this morning. There were quite a few Kiwis and Aussies there. Both NZ and Australia have a High Commission in Port Vila. 
 The Clerk of PCV, our boss Pastor Allen Nafuki, is also the head of the Vanuatu Council of Christian Churches, and so he lead the prayer during the service.
 The two women in the centre are the two High Commissioners, the NZ one on the left.
After the service there was a wonderful free breakfast put on by the NZ and Australian High Commissions for anyone who had attended the service, at the Warwick Le Lagon resort, paid for by NZ and Aus tax payers no doubt, so we thought we had better make the most of it. This was our first full cooked breakfast in over 6 weeks - so good!
