This was the day of the singing competition between four settlements located on the Christmas Island: London, Tabakea, Banana and Poland…
Yes, there is settlement named Poland on the far end of the atoll. It was probably named by the chief engineer from the copra boat visiting Christmas Island at the beninning of XX century… I visited Poland before Chrismas – the people there know almost nothing about Poland in Europe…
But at the competition they were singing very nice… During Christmas meeting every village wear different colors: Poland wear withie and blue, Banana white and green, London: white and red – the colors of the Polish flag – I found this very, very nice…
