It looks quite lovely. One of the islands has a place called Pentecost, where a school is. I would be concerned about headhunters, however. This could have been where Biden’s uncle got ‘tabled’.

I think that was on New Guinea. Which was also the last place one of the Rockefellers was seen.

FYI, my dad spent some time on the north side of New Guinea around Wee Wak with Douglas MacArthur in 1944-45. Dad said there were head hunters still in the interior of the island back then. He had pictures of men with feathers in their hair and bones through their noses. I guess that is that that much different than half the twenty something women around today.

Biden’s uncle disappeared in PNG.

Here’s a blast from the past about Vanuatu (my, how journalism has changed):
