Ayla Dancing the Ava

Here's a video of one of our friends, Ayla, dancing the Ava, a traditional Samoan dance. Ayla travelled to Japan with a polynesian dance group earlier this year and has recently left the Rock to go back to Peru before she starts college. She's going to be dancing and teaching some of the traditional polynesian dances there to make some money for school. Go Ayla!

I don't get it. You have this wonderful and beautiful blog about your life on an island, and nary a comment from any viewers to be found! What is up with that? I hope life is good for you, keep up the wonderful blog, and all your good work. Your photos are amazing.
