Name the fruit
No idea what this fruit is but we found it on Neil Island so let us know if you do...
Neil Island was much less organised for tourists than Havelock....most people there seemed to be of the pot smoking 18 year old variety who seemed happy in the 50 rupee (60p) per night huts with no door and just eating what fruits they could find themselves. We wanted something a little better so for a fiver a night we found ourselves this hut...looks good right? Well except the large numbers of mice (or were they rats?) also living there. They made loads of noise during the nights but fortunately Michelle didn't hear them til the last night or we may have left after day 1!
The food there was pretty good as where we stayed was one of the few places to serve food it seemed...
we ordered by 2pm each day and then they went to the market to buy what we wanted...fresh grilled fish every day. One breakfast was a highlight though - I asked for a mixed fruit pancake and when he read our order back, he read it as "banana pancake". I explained I wanted mixed fruit and he said he only had banana but he'd see if he could find papaya...we assumed he meant he'd look in the kitchen, but instead he strolled past us into the forest and came back a couple of minutes later with papaya...
