Saturday swim team

Saturday swim team

Hurray - another Public Holiday!  This one is UN day (24 October).  Palau is a UN member (as is Australia). So each have one vote.  Palau is an independent so many countries hope Palau will ally with them.  For more see: http://palauun.org/

But for us all here - another day of food and festivals.  This one features a Pig chase.  Not as simple as it sounds because the pig is oiled and you have to grab it to win it.  I don't think we will be partaking.  But more than likely we will be going for a swim - here is a picture of our Saturday team.  I am hiding - Jan is not because he is as brown as a Palauan now!  The young fit ones are the national team; one of whom is being primed for the Olympics in Rio 2016.
