After a long day of travel yesterday, we had a lazy start to the morning. Since we were five hours ahead of our home time zone, our body clocks were still catching up. We planned to explore Majuro today. We set out after lunchtime, and our first stop was the Alele Museum and Public Library. We reached it by shared taxi; the fare was USD 2 per person to go anywhere in Majuro. The taxis drive continuously along the only main road on the island, and you can flag one down going in your desired direction.
The Alele Museum and Public Library 🔗 featured many exhibits and a wealth of information about the Marshall Islands, making it a wonderful experience. Afterward, we started walking back toward our Airbnb. We passed by the City Courthouse — Imon Ekajet — and then the Payless Supermarket.
We then passed the College of the Marshall Islands, with the Majuro Fire Station located just across from it.
Further along, we saw the Cathedral of the Assumption, which serves as the seat of the Apostolic Prefecture of the Marshall Islands.
Next, we saw the Marshall Islands National Telecommunications Authority (NTA). It is the sole provider of telecommunications services in the country.
Walking past the International Convention Center and continuing along the main road, we spotted the Flame Tree Backpackers Hostel and the Formosa Shopping Center.
By evening, we decided to have dinner at the Enra Restaurant at the Marshall Islands Resort. They have a lovely patio with outdoor seating overlooking the lagoon.
It was wonderful to relax there and enjoy the view. Afterward, we walked back to our Airbnb, which was a short distance away, and turned in for the night.
