Heiva in Huahine

We have spent the last 2 weeks enjoying the Heiva in Huahine. Huahine is an island about 90 miles from Tahiti. The population is about 6000 and it is really unspoiled. Heiva is a celebration that happens every July for about 3 weeks. It is sort of like an island Olympics with the 7 villages competing against each other. Each village wears their color. Here is the village of Fitii in purple. The competitions include all kinds of tradition and culture. We saw the first day and ended up staying for 2 weeks! So there are lots of pictures in this update because there's lots to see. And we wanted to share it with you!
