The Whatevers and the Dancers after church. The service was either in Marquesan, Tahitian or French and was a great intro with the locals.

Tattoo of a haka, a Marquesan warrior. They used to kill their enemies with intricately-carved wooden clubs. Polynesia is a heavily-tattooed culture.

Roasting bread fruit. Afterwards, it was pounded into a paste-like dish called poi, a stable in the diet. Different from Hawaiian poi made with taro.
