Thanks Dan, its pretty hard to explain where Tongan is with words!
No I am not a native. I am originally from the states but grew up as a kid in Fiji and then my parents moved to Tonga when I was 12, so Tonga is my home away from home.
Hey Kolt, yeah Matt had a good run-in with the doggies! Glad he enjoyed his trip. How are the Kingfish doing? A guy on my boat speared one off one of our wrecks this past winter. A bit too far north for a kingfish I think. Anyways it tasted great!
