On Man's only day off, Sunday, we were invited to Ai Island for a picnic with Badaria's family. From left to right are Mira, Pon, Ahmed, Badaria, Rida & Onyong. Mira was from Ai Island and lived with Badaria to attend school. Pon is Badaria's sister and her only son is Ahmed. Rida is Badaria and Man's only son. All the inhabitants of Banda now are Muslims. During the so-called "tension" in Ambon in 2000 all Christians left Banda, with their dogs. There are now no dogs on these islands. |
