Outing to Mulitefala

Mulitefala is the second island off the north end (remediated rubbish tip end) of Fogafale - the first island is Amatuku, where there is a marine training school, to train the Tuvaluan lads to work at sea.  Our landlady, Lita, and husband, Pita, own half Mulitefala, and, since the other owners are never there, they have the run of the island.  Here is the team waiting for the boat:
