Today was very hectic because at the beginning of the day we had to start filming our short clip on solar panels. This required us to do lots of practise using different cameras and microphones, as well as writing scripts and drawing diagrams. At the start we were very disorganised, which frustrated Mark a bit but made us realize that we need to start taking more initiative; an important learning point!!! We will finish off the filming tomorrow.
We then travelled to Pacific Harbour by bus which was a great experience and it allowed us to see more of the island. As we travelled through small villages it was interesting to see how the people live and how they make use of their land. They grow lots of sugar cane and bananas and there were many cows, horses and small goats. A lot of these were tied to a spot beside the road to feed. There were quite a lot of unfinished and derelict buildings. We also saw school children playing. During the road trip, Sarah was singing songs and Ben was accompanying her with the guitar. Half way through the trip, we stopped at Baravi and some of us were attracted to the road side stall selling hot corn.
