We have hired a car!!

Today we hired a car! It's actually a Ute. We have it until Wednesday. It was delivered to us which was exceptionally convenient, and the woman who dropped it off went to Onesua High School! (where Colin taught).
It is totally and utterly mad driving here. There are loads of "taxi" vans, and lots of Utes with guys on the back. (We saw a truck drive passed yesterday which church pews on the back!). We have to drive on the other side of the road, and then of course you have to drive all over the road (everyone does!) to avoid the massive pot holes.
I think I'm beginning to get used to the madness and the juxtaposition or just general in-your-faceness of poverty and richness (resorts and foreigners' richness). We realized that our "resort" is more of a (very nice) motel.
This is a view while driving.
