Vanuatu - Espirito de Santo

Arrived from Sydney after a 3 hour flight. Back to reality after the unrivalled hospitality of The 4 Seasons. Santo is the biggest island in Vanuatu. The main town is Luganville, dusty hot non-descript place that was a huge US Military base during WW2. It's a pretty drab town where the locals seem to sit around doing very little. The local restaurants consisted of a little row of huts by the market. Each one with a window hatch and a big smiling Mama inside. Despite the town's image, the people are all very smiley and welcoming. The menu was steak or curry with a jug of squash. Its cheap and cheerful and cooked in front of you. We spent a couple of days sorting ourselves out and then headed out of dodge.

Back at the ranch doing some cookin of my own. The chips were from the local chippy in town, served with .... steak again :)
