Nakawakawa Damage

After Cyclone Winston, I went to Nakawakawa with food and supplies. These are a few of my favorite pictures of the damage:

House leveled

Cassava, front and center, stripped

Tall Bamboo Raggedy Anned (Elder Sievert's description)

Damage near port

Tin off missionary flat attached to church in Nakawakawa

Another view of tin off missionary's flat

Trees down and across road

Natural braiding of big vines

Solar Unit on roof of Chapel still in tact and working perfectly. While most affected areas were out of power, there was still power in Nakawakawa in more ways than one!

New Assembly of God Church leveled

Cassava crop ruined

This palm tree had one frond left to wave goodbye to Cyclone Winston,
"Ha, ha, you forgot one! I'm still alive!"

Outdoor toilet by Chapel of Nakawakawa broken & stripped of its privacy

The lady of this house was in Labasa when she heard her roof was gone.
She was so grateful that her kitchen was still covered.

In the middle, my beautiful fern palms stripped. We have heard people say this is "Nature's Pruning" (Last time we passed new fronds were growing back. Green and perfect!)
