Loading Containers On Flat-Bed Trucks
We had no special plans for the afternoon, so we stayed on the ship.
It was Sunday, and Suva didn't beckon us to to walk the couple of blocks to town.
After a while the proceedings in the upper left corner of this picture became interesting.
People were gathering in the open space to the left of a clump of trees.
We were hearing ranting over a loud speaker and finally located the noise as coming from the
bus station. This appeared to be a political rally, and along with musical entertainment,
someone was attempting to whip them into a frenzy supporting his point of view.
The growing crowd stayed orderly, but it was easy to see the anatomy of a riot here.
We were not tempted to stroll over there to see what was going on.
