This is another flashback to 1968. The place is Antebuka, Tarawa, about 1° north of the equator in the Central Pacific. I am on the far right. Behind me are my mother and my sister. On the left are the wife and two daughters of the colonial police chief. We are doing school work. OBSERVATION: By now, I had lived a few years without chairs, on the outer islands. People joked about the fact that, when I sat on a chair, I continued to sit cross-legged, as the locals did. You may click on the image to enlarge to 670k.
