The Village

July 20, 2003 in Micronesia ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

On our second day, my client’s staff Tony, Cheryl, and Michelle trooped out to The Village, which is a high end resort, for lunch. The views from there were quite impressive. My friend Scott, who used to live on Pohnpei, asked me to look out for a three legged dog at The Village that was once his. I was happy to report back to him that the dog was healthy and happy.

On the way back to Kolonia, we stopped at a village that was known for its handicrafts made from local mangrove wood and shells. I purchased a couple of turtle themed souvenirs. Before leaving Pohnpei, I was given a heart shaped handicraft by a local official.
