Our trainers decided to take us on an excursion this weekend - boy did we need a getaway! We took a boat ride in the morning and spent the day doing a quick business survey of the very basic tourist operation there and then enjoying ourselves immensely!
Kirsten & Amanda's host families had "prepared" them for their journey with special outfits. Lucky them!
As usual, Sami was the first to try out climbing a coconut tree! William, not to be outdone by a girl, wasn't far behind, testing out another technique
...
'Uoleva had the nicest beach I've seen yet in Tonga...lovely sand stretching for miles and extending far out into the water, making for wonderful swimming.
If you come to spend the night, you could stay in one of these fales (fah-lays)!
Our language instructor, Poli, making a basket from coconut fronds.
A group playing some beach football.
Taua & Paea roasting some piglet for us for our kai tunu (beach picnic).
And, Jason demonstrating that he has all the other guys (& girls) beat when it comes to tree climbing.
