21 July 2000. Paama Island. With the bottom of the boat almost full of blood ;-), we manage to reach the coast of Paama Island notwithstanding the rough sea. On the coast of Paama we observe the catastrophic effects of the 26 November 1999 earthquake that shook the island and was probably the cause of the draining of the lava lakes of Ambrym. 1.6 MB
