A day of pottery

We met a lovely woman at the fiji museum and her and her mom make pottery. We asked if they would teach us how they make pottery in fiji, and they we happy to teach us at their village. The village is about 1/2 hour by car from Suva, before the airport. They collect the clay from the river bank of the Rewa River, and make all sorts of traditional pots and little pigs, ducks and bura's to sell at the museum. I made a little pig and Josie made a little pot. We had a great day and feel very inspired to do our own pottery here at the house.
