Take another look at the flag of the Solomon Islands . . . look familiar? The blue stands for the sea, yellow for the sand, green for the land, and the five stars for the main islands.

Canoes meet passing ships to load market goods and get them to Honiara to sell in the Central Market.

This giant sea turtle is also heading to Honiara, and he's not going as a tourist! He'll be sold at the market there. People are so poor that protecting "endangered species" doesn't outweigh a source of income.
