ON THE WEB
A very well written article on the SURVIVOR filming in the Marquesas is at : http://www.aaanet.org/press/an/0205RileySurvivor.htm Even (or especially!) if you are not a Survivor fan, it is well worth reading & provides some good insight into how indigenous people are often portrayed and effected by such film productions.

If you are in Hawai'i, stop by Peggy's Picks on Kapahulu in Kaimuki. Peggy just returned from a buying trip in Aotearoa & the Cook Islands & has some great new stuff at good prices. It's worth a trip to check out the custom painted clothing line by Tav Creations of Rarotonga.
