On Sunday we got a rental car and made a tour over the island.<\/p>\n
For me it was nice to see all again. Having a second look is having a different one.<\/p>\n
The landscapes being formed by volcanic activities about 6 Mio years ago are really fascinating to me. Most of the slopes are very steep, many are close to vertical. Only the end of valleys going into a bay have kind of flat areas. Enough for people to settle. But the settlements are very small. Population of a village I estimate below 200 people some even less than 100. All Hiva-Oa l, Tahuata, and Fatu-Hiva have a population of about 3000 people.<\/p>\n
The villages are kept very tidy.<\/p>\n

La Boule (or la petanque) is being played here often. Male, female groups of adult people play their “partie de boules”.<\/p>\n
Children and youth prefer volleyball and soccer.<\/p>\n
At the end of the day we traveled all the roads of Hiva-Oa and had a delicious lunch at the restaurant in Paumau. I enjoyed this already with my OBM and Nora & Hacko of SY Anixi.<\/p>\n
Inge told me that it was an interesting day for her. Made me feel good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
