Sights Around Tongatapu

Following are a few pictures that we have taken of the island of Tongatapu.  We are wanting our grandchildren to be very appreciative of the homes they get to live.

This is a field of ufi and giant taro.  The root is kind of like a giant long, sometimes 2-3 feet long, potatoe.

These fellows roam everywhere on the island.  Even in and out of some of the houses!

This is a front yard of a couple of homes with our fine friends.  There are a few children sitting on a board under the tree.

Must be supper time.  Little ones getting their dinner!

These are some of the homes that are around this area.  We have went to deliver wheel chairs here before.

We hope our grandchildren will appreciate their beautiful homes they have to live in.

This is where Captain Cook landed and discovered the first of the Tongan Islands.

These are peanuts that they grow here.  Kent likes to eat them green like this.  

These are just a few of the shells that Charmain has picked up off the beaches and out of the pools when the tides are down.

Here is Kent and Charmain heading to our Christmas song recording at the recording studio in there official Tongan attire.

Some of the beautiful trees on Liahona Campus.  The camera do not do them justice.

More trees on Liahona.  These are right out our back door.
