My Family // May 2011
This is my family: Sam is laughing at something; Tom is doing what he does best; and Row and I are pretending to not be tired! We’re all well and thankful for quality time together.

Yesu Azali Awa – Esalaik String Band
One of my highlights of Vanuatu 2010 was a rather boisterous sing-a-long to and from our kayaking adventure. The kayaking was slightly sketchy: bad kayaks; risky conditions; overpriced; and lame sharks to feed. That didn’t matter. The trip was worth it. String Bands are a popular form of music in Vanuatu. We enjoyed listening to the Esalaik String Band on the bus. In one of the songs we recognised some of the lyrics and began to sing along. The bus driver liked this. So he kept repeating the track.
After both legs of the journey, we probably sang the song over 50 times!! The song was called Yesu Azali Awa – which I think means ‘Jesus is my Lord’. The chorus basically repeats the line ‘Hallelujah Jesus’ over and over again. And so we repeated it over and over again! So much fun.
Here are some vids from the experience that made it onto facebook: vid 1 and vid 2.
And above is a vid of my son dancing to the same song. :)
