Last days in the Marquesas

On our last eventful day in the Marquesas, we decided to take a hike to a waterfall. These are a few pics we took along the way. You'll notice we never made it to the waterfall - we lost the trail in the 'ancient village' and decided we'd had enough anyway.

Really, a phone booth here?

A typical home. Few windows let alone walls!

There are lots of wild pigs. The locals hunt them on horses with their dogs.

It's not all palm trees! It was really warm in the interior of the island with lots of bugs! We also managed to find wild mangos (not pictured here, just thought I'd mention it)

We met a local, Augustine who took us to his 'house' and sold us 16 giant pampelmouse (local grapefruit) and limes. Notice all the Hinano beer cans, the sculls, etc. What a different life!

His horse aptly named "Iron"

Augustine and Bill.

The cows get hot too!
