The 9th Festival of Pacific Arts, July - Aug. '04 - hosted by Palau
All my personal pics were deleted in a freak accident. A couple of my friends will have to do.

Carving of the Peace Board
I loved to stop by each day and watch them. Carvers from all over the Pacific made a contribution on the behalf of their country. |
I spent most of my time watching dance performances by the 25 countries.

There was also a Peace Mat
I think most countries participated by making a square in their country's own original style. (except for Yap, we weren't quite that together) |

My Permanent Souvenier
I know this picture isn't the best but it's the only one I have right now. |
My tattoo artist, Vari'i (middle)
He's from a small island in French Polynesia. This picture was taken from an article on Tahitian Tattoo Revival by Tricia Allen.
