[status]Anchored at Matuku. We went in the long boat with the Matuku Island nurse Ron and Jesse to 2 other villages and while Ron did his clinics we did the reading glasses a total of 21 pairs amongst the two villages. When we got back to the boat they all came onboard for a cuppa and a chat.
We are been picked up at 0800 this morning to be taken to another village of about 100 people and the next Tuesday are been taken to the two villages on the other side of the island. Hopefully we will have enough glasses as we are running terribly short of the 1.25-1.75 range which is the most needed.
Every one here is super friendly were given boiled buns with local marmalade for lunch and there is a lot of talk about the upcoming 7's world cup. Who is going to win Fiji or NZ hopefully we get to see some of the games.
