Visiting the Island of Yap - April 2001

Our hotel (tree house) in Yap
We stayed at The Pathways Hotel. This was not  a hotel by western standards - it was more of a tree-house, with thatched roof and perched on stilts.
Village life
There were four local tribes on Yap. We visited two of these, and were fortunate enough to see some native tribal dances. 
WWII artifacts
Several WWII battles were fought on Yap, which supported a Japanese airfield. These pictures include the wreckage of a Japanese Zero and an anti-aircraft gun.
