Lack of a good definite article affects the meaning

A, or THE? This is how my Tom back-translated our translation of Mat 13:44: 44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought a field.

It SHOULD have said, "...he sold all he had and bought THAT field (that is, the one that had the treasure box on it." But our definite articles aren't that clear in Tannese. So, we had to make it explicit: "he went and bought the field that had the treasure."

15th Anniversary

We had our 15th anniversary on Tanna (well, we had our 8th, 10th, 11th, and 14th there too). We had a wonderful meal at one of the best restaurants in Vanuatu, Tanna lodge: mushroom chicken, scotch fillet, pan fried poulet. The kids had their usual swim in the rough waves on the one of the only stretches of beach on Tanna that doesn't have a coral reef.
