http://tonga-serenity.blogspot.com/2008/03/few-pics.html
Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Wednesday, March 5, 2008. Two doors down. They cover the graves with a pile of sand or place a concrete slab over it to prevent the pigs from digging up the dead. At the rocky beach behind our house. Caleb loves the wildlife, this is one of our resident geckos, Mario. He does not show his face as much as his bigger friend, Luigi. Evening view out our patio. The school bus that is being celebrated. The baby pig our Tongan family brought to chow on. June 2, 2008 at 11:44 AM.

http://tonga-serenity.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Friday, February 29, 2008. Tongans love food and they love to share it. Unfortunately, they eat a lot of food that is repulsive to most Americans and the preparation, serving, and storage poses serious health risks. I have seen worse conditions in. So this is nothing new to me, but it is quite surprising to Rachel. Rachel and I have prepare most of our meals: oatmeal, rice, eggs, chicken, BP&J, and spaghetti. Wednesday, February 27, 2008.

http://tonga-serenity.blogspot.com/2008/02/quick-update.html
Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Wednesday, February 27, 2008. The dive was great, we saw thousands of fish and the coral was pretty good (not as good as say. Cozumel. 7 years ago a hurricane wiped out a lot of the shallow corral above 30 feet and a lot of the fish population went with it. We saw lion fish, sea snakes, groupers, tuna, etc. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pics of the Kids. Middle East Trip 2011. Southeast Asia Trip 2005.

Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Wednesday, March 12, 2008. I made it home safe yesterday. I will be adding one or two more final posts to wrap up my experience with a few thoughts. I wish I could say, "it's good to be back", but I really wish I was still in Tonga with Rachel for another 3 weeks. A few more pictures is all I am up for tonight. Sitting in the net between the pontoons on the trimaran. Missionaries of many Christian faiths are common in Tonga. One of the species of centipedes we say, this ...

Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Friday, February 15, 2008. Next item we occupied ourselves with was diapers? I was not sure if they carried disposable diapers so I informed Rachel that she need to plan on using cloth. This did not go over very well, since she has heard horror stories about cloth diapers. Relief came when I got an email from my contact that indicated that they do sell disposables. Andrew’s offered us a ride into town where he showed us around. He took us to the bank the offere...All the...

Tonga Trip 2008: First Couple Days
http://tonga-serenity.blogspot.com/2008/02/first-couple-days.html
Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Monday, February 18, 2008. Day 1 and 2 (Wed and Thur). Traveling and buying some essentials (see previous post). After a couple hours exploring the main street and a couple short side streets, Caleb was too fussy to haul around anymore and we headed for home. I wanted to walk out to the LDS school to discuss volunteer work, but that was just going to have to wait until Monday. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pics of the Kids. Middle East Trip 2011.

Tonga Trip 2008: The Wrap Up w/ Some Ramblings
http://tonga-serenity.blogspot.com/2008/03/wrap-up-w-some-ramblings.html
Tonga Vavau Neiafu Saineha Toula. Friday, March 14, 2008. The Wrap Up w/ Some Ramblings. Well, I still feel like there is a lot on my mind about this place that I can not fully convey in pictures and words, it is just something you have to experience to truly appreciate Tonga. Are we glad we went? Would we do it again? Would we do anything different? Are we going to go back? Probably not, I like to go to new places. Where's my next trip? I would like to go to Peru to visit Machu. The future of Tonga.
