At the cemetery 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.
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.

Our Tongan "Mom" dancing with the kava tree. The kava plant is the most important plant to the Tongans. They create an aphrodisiac drink from the leaves.
The pretty girls dance and the locals give her money that is donated to the sponsor of the feast, in this case it was the government.

Not even close-Kava is made from the roots and is in no way an aphrodisiac.
If it's anything it's a soporific, decreasing desire not in any way enhancing it although it does imbue a sense of society.
I can't believe you went to Tonga and never tried it.
