Wusi, on Espirito Santo, is one of two "pottery villages" left in Vanuatu. Nina bought one of their bowls. While we were there a small motor boat arrived with their once-a-year pills (free to all) to prevent Elephantiasis. Mosquitoes spread the tiny worms of this disfiguring affliction, and we saw several people suffering from it in Vanuatu.
