Lili's Quick Polynesian Summary

The group of islanders that we will be visiting are collectively known as
Polynesians. Many believe that the Polynesians first came to their respective
islands from Southeast Asia. Also, many historians believe that there is a
distinct possibility that Native Americans and Polynesians are related.
One group, Native Americans, traveled by land through the
Bering Strait. The Polynesians set course on the high seas. Both groups

are thought to have originated from the same place. The Polynesian
people comprise six groups: Maori, Samoan, Fijian (some do not consider
them an actual member of the group), Tahitians, Tongans, and Hawaiians.
Throughout their storied history, Polynesians have kept the traditions of
the "old island" with the blend of modern living. Their ability to blend
both lifestyles has allowed for more opportunities and holding on
to traditions that have been passed down through the generations.
Please join us today in learning more about them. Also, come with us
to enjoy the many activities and locations that they have shared with the
world. Enjoy yourself!

Thanks. Almost got up close and personal with a moose on the way home. Right at the edge of the road. Had he stepped into the road, WHAM! It would have been too late to stop. Oops!

I am surprised to see that the new thread is still not up.

The 1st of the month can sometimes be problematic.

Have a great day all.

I'll try to jump on this afternoon.

KBay. Nice of you to join us. Please visit daily, if you can, as you never know what a new day will bring here at the Canteen.

Watch out for the guy trying to sell you a burka.
