We saw Alice off to Vila on the morning flight and then prepared to leave for Saramauri that afternoon. It is 4 months since we visited this clinic up in the middle bush in the middle of Santo. They had arranged a fund-raising event over two days with a volleyball competition and ample food as the result of slaughtering a cow. They cut it up at night on our arrival to minimise the amount of flies.
We slept in the clinic which at least did not have any rats like the other place we stayed last time. The beds were very comfortable and we slept soundly.
Manuel the nurse has spent a lot of the clinic fees on upgrading the clinic and had constructed a modern toilet block with flush modern toilet and running shower with some tiling and handbasin as good as one may get in many an English campsite!!
