[Dialogue] Question about Tonga

[Priscilla Wilson]

This question about Tonga is for Mary Laura. Kaze Gadway and I are on  
the Outer Banks watching the waves and writing stories about our  
lives. I was in Tonga with Mary Laura and staff in 1982 for the  
Pacific Training School. I'm working on a story about that experience.  
I really have two questions, Mary Laura...
If you go to my web site...I have a montage of women and girls on my  
home page. In the center of the montage are two Tongan women...and I  
can not remember their names. I hope you do...
Also...we had a wonderful community celebratory meal spread out on  
cloth on the ground...which we all sat around...with mountains of  
food. Fortunately that was twenty-seven years ago when I could still  
sit on the ground. Do you remember what that kind of celebration is  
called...and who participated in it? Was it the school participants or  
the village folk...or just the school staff?
Hope your memory is better than mine.
I'm sending this to the ica and oe because I don't have your email  
address with me. You can write me personally if you wish...and include  
any other fond thoughts you have of Tonga that I should include.
Take care,
Priscilla
