The blond guy sitting on the left was first saying all kinds of different things to this lady and she would whistle the translation every time. La Gomera is apparently not the only place where they use this kind of communication, but I had never heard it before. Really interesting though, she sounded like a real bird, but beats me how they understand the difference between one whistle and the other : one of the many languages I will never be able to "speak". The dark haired guy standing up had to get out of the room, so he could not see what was happening inside and then when he came back, she whistled to him where the pullover of a lady or the camera of a man were hidden and he found them : it is still pretty much alive this language! Everyone loved it!
