PCV Thank You 17th August.

On Friday afternoon the PCV put on a thank you celebration for Annette and me for our time in Vanuatu.  (or was it a celebration that we have finally said we are returning home).  Pastor Allen thanked us for our service to the PCV and to Vanuatu.  Then each staff member made short speeches thanking us. We then had a very nice kaikai, including Alice's soup (stew) and laplap.  A wonderful thank you and meal, thank you to all staff. Then we were presented with many wonderful gifts.Tank yu tumas long staf blong PCV, yu oli gudfala, wi laekem yu tumas.
