Rarotonga - last stop

So last stop then...

Its raining here at the moment, has been for a few days...  But its beautiful anyway and warm and theres a really good bunch of people at the hostel so I'm having fun.  Have spent a lot of time playing in the pool, trying to get all our pool challenges to become legend and end up in the lonely planet...(these include walking on your hands across the pool,, somersaults and flips into the pool, pool volleyball etc etc)  There are free bananas too and as food is mostly shipped from New Zealand and expensive, these are a major part of otu diet.  So anyone with banana recipes please post below...  Have so far made banana crumble from ingredients from the free shelf, banana curry (yum) and fried bananas with treacle (when drunk).

Today I've hired a bike to ride around the island as its pretty small, 32km around.  Am on a quest for a black pearl which are grown locally.  There are goats and pigs everywhere plus banana, mango, papaya and starfriut trees, its cool, very chilled.  Just ate some parrot fish for lunch, feel bad because they are very pretty..

Thats all for now, will be on my way home in a few days which is sad, feeling very relaxed though which is good.  Slightly confused about time and space as I crossed the internationla date line on the way here from Fiji so I arrived the night before I left Fiji and am now 10 or 11 behind the UK instead of infront, wierd.

See you all soon!!!
