Santa relaxing on the shores of Anse Vata (Noumea, New Caledonia) before the busy month ahead. Seriously though, this is a homeless person sleeping in the shade to escape the scorching sun.
Friends and strangers alike watching pétanque on the shores of Anse Vata (Noumea, New Caledonia). Pétanque is a French bowling game similar to Lawn Bowling. Except it's played with smaller, metal balls (bottom of the picture) and on dirt grounds. A very popular game, here, in New Caledonia.
