ポートビラ2日目 Port Villa 2

　今日（１６日）はポートビラ２日目。朝、タクシーで西隣の湾南端にあるカスタムへ行ってきました。ここは只。昨日は町中のイミグレへ行行ってきましたが、イミグレと検疫で計約１万バツ、高い！ＮＺ，ニューカレは無料なのに。でも人々は外見はいかついのに、皆人懐っこくて親切です。タクシーの運転手も、カスタムのビルまでかなりの距離歩いて案内してくれました。大きな豪華客船が来ていてあたりは屋台と観光客でごった返してました。

　　Yesterday, May15, we arrived at Port Villa at 1 PM. After finiｓhing Quarantine anchoring at the specified zone, a skiff guided us to Yachting World's marina and three personnel there picked up the buoy for Bow and tied Stern to the wharf.

     This morning, we went to Customs where they did not require money, unlike Quarantine and Immigration yesterday which requested 10,000Vatu(approx.11US$) in total. NZ and New Caledonia were free of charges, Tonga was very expensive.

     One good thing here is that people are very friendly and kind.
