Found that lost sd card finally - Here's the vid.

Hightlight for me was getting caught on barb wire and watching a 5 year old Fijian girl attempt to cut open a coconut with a machete.

Nice, vid . The climate change / rising sea level skeptics should have a look at that one.

Not much freeboard left there !!!!

Nice one Scotty.

S&S, yes I was thinking the same thing.
Sea Levels are rising, but I'm not convinced we can do much about it.... Historically, I thought sea levels have been higher than they currently are, not sure (?)...
I think one day, just in Sydney, the low areas around Bondi, Manly, Avalon Village, Newport Shops, etc, will go under water.

sands and simondo,
Just had another look as I didn't pick up on sea level before. I can tell you it was full high tide when I paddled that day (which is obvious due to how close it was to top of sea wall) due to the fact that at low tide you could walk across that body of water.
It makes you wonder how long the sea wall has been there. Without it, the village wouldn't exist.

Nice vid. Brings back memories of Island days and villages along the coast.
