Showing 1-4 of 4 matches for Mitiaro (backdrop).
11 Nov 2017 A first birthday to remember, beach-side at Vaiana’s.
Initially planned as a modest affair; it was a great occasion, local and international guests, costume-friendly theme – Safari! – with the booth as the icing on the cake. Overcast conditions in the morning went easy those setting-up (although the balloons didn’t fare so well). A pure to open festivities was followed by cake and kai kai, then mingling of family and friends. A well-rested birthday girl took all the attention in her stride. Younger guests left clutching a candy-floss gift bag and a fist-full of fotos.
Meitaki for having us (and our monkeys), as part of your celebration.

29 Nov 2014 With the closing of Vaka Eiva and the recent Cookie league tri-series, we had a few sporter-and-supporter groups at the market this morning. The weather alternated between heat and light showers - awesome if you’re amphibious.
Aroko was a bit unsettled so we headed to the harbour with Troy to check out the boats, and I found out about the voyage to Rakahanga. Then back to the markets to pick up a new backdrop from Aunty Poko.
Next week we kick off our Christmas season (weather permitting).

27 Sep 2014 It’s time for the NZ school holidays – w. plenty of families making the most of a tropical break. We also had local families hitting the booth for some fun. While Justine took care of the pix, me and Aroko took a tour of the HMNZS Otago, in port after helping out with some CI fisheries surveying and training exercises. We bought our first pineapple of the season, and it’s a relief to see nita (paw paw) and meika (banana) available again.
Meitaki to everyone for rockin’ the booth.

14 Dec 2013 A very sleepy market this Saturday. More ‘Christmas Kukis’ returning for Summer. Locals taking shots before they fly out and the occasional family making the most of our Christmas Special (3 of our big photos for just $10).
