Its Erakor Lagoon. The nakamal over looks it, nice cool breeze.That is a far out view you have outside of the nakamal. Is that the ocean or a lake? It looks like you are up on a hill.
Man im in a dreamland this morning (sic lots of coffee & no fast movements ha !). As ive always said i dont really feel these differences in kava's, i know weak & strong but for the past week or so in aust ive been drinking powdered fijian which was very strong as powders go & then in one day to jump to fresh i def notice the difference. Nothing i can really describe but fresh vanuatu is an infinitely deeper kava with no fast peaks, each shell builds a massive infrasound thing going on, you feel as if a seismic wave is building that cant be seen or heard. Each shell takes 10-15 mins to deepen the bass. Its always best to sit & wait a good while once you have had 5-6 shells as the next 1 or 2 can be the top of a bell curve.Will be lookin' forward to all your updates, bruz. If only I could drink a picture...
Without any question fresh is easier to drink. Think of it not a suspended solution as powdered, but as a watered down sap.do you notice if fresh or dry is easier on the stomach bloating/nausea...or are they similar in that regard ?
Generally is just whats for sale in the market that morning (ie pentacost etc). Ill take a few photos of the varieties once i get the motivation to move which this morning, is not a high priority just now.Wow that looks magnificent.
If you get a chance ask the locals about a kava called Pualiu; it's supposedly pretty popular on the port vila scene.
Maybe you'll get a chance to try a shell or two.
Regardless I know you're prob already having a good time so keep us updated if you can.
Cheers mate. I doubt i can upload any vids until i get home, i will give it a go though. Man i feel as slow as the net, fresh kava can lure you in with 'yeah sure im up for another'. 2 hours until sopfie nakamal opens & im not over the day after hump yet, im getting slack.Ahhhhh I love these pictures so much. They turned out well, even with the compression.
Hahaha well it's called the "High Commision" because the walls are high right Nemo?Well theres no kava for sale in the market today…odd & ill have to ask why. Ok just asked & got 5 answers that still made no sense to me other that the boat is late possibly. They said not to worry there will still be fresh kava this afternoon.
Its warm, maybe mid 80's f & humid, nothing like summer here but enough to sort my kava. Ive no idea how these pics will post as ive had to reduce them a lot. My download speed here is 0.47Mbps & upload 0.38Mbps.

The stairs back to my digs. Not good after a night on the kava. Ive considered seeing if the keys are in one of the hummers. Lots of odd cars here, the south pacific to me seems sort of like a kitchen sink S trap of auto world. Theres a clapped out porsche a clapped out ferrari a few big V8 holdens. All useless on these roads.
