Voyage to Paradise #6 September 2013

Residents of Fatu Hiva demonstrated making “”umu hei” (floral headbands) and tapa cloth from bark. Kathy joined the hikers who walked ten miles over the ridge to the next village while the rest of us went by the Aranui III, transferred to a barge and watched a woman making “pani” and “Monoi” plus enjoyed some more Polynesian dances,
Ua Huka has a barren landscape similar to Easter Island and the wild horses originally brought over from Chile outnumber the 476 residents.
