Pictures from Jeh


Pictures from Jeh Island in Ailinglaplap Atoll.

This is Selvin, Leonora, and their son, Nervin.  They're a great family who are doing a lot to serve the community on Jeh. 
This big sign used to span across the road entering the school, but the posts on either end were getting rotten and it '"wasn't safe" (in the words of Selvin), so they moved it lower.  It is a THICK/HEAVY piece of wood.


Another pretty sunset with a nice reflection of the masts on the water.

The tuna that we caught with TC's small casting rod (& gave to Tommy).

A colorful and delicious dinner - kind of a hodge podge of leftovers, plus fresh breadfruit trips.  
I love these girls!
We had a fun afternoon.  We played soccer and hit a volleyball around with many of the Jeh children.  TC and Paul led the older kids game, while I led a game with the young kids.

TC and Paul lead the kids down the road, back to the main village, after we finished playing for the day.
