Our last stop in our South Sea Islands cruise...
Postcard view of the bay...

Arrival into that bay...
ok, ok.  this is truly the most picturesque island of all !!   :~)
Our welcome ! Only a dozen ships stop here each year.
Walk'about along the shallow bay...

           Above: Church wood carvings are an example of the residents' skills        Ancestral techniques used for their carvings are not found anywhere else.       .


These orange trees were spectacular ! 

Farewell...
This last port stop on our cruise was truly memorable...
remote, mostly uninhabited, and so colorful. 

Most picturesque !
