 Kia Orana Whanau,
My name is Vaine Violet Adams and my mother is Ngariki Adams (nee Pekepo-Punga), who lives in Auckland.
I am so proud to see my mother birth place in here and wished that there were more pictures in there to know that Mangaia is a beautiful place. I have only been back to Mangaia once but is looking forward to going back with my mother, as she is retiring back to Mangaia in 2008. Me and my family are hoping that you continue with the beautiful work that you are doing and add more photo's
Best Wishes
Kia Orana Koutou Katoa

Kia Orana Karen,
Thanks for replying to my comment it has been a journey for me to see the our mother land is still beautiful. If your father still feels like going home to Mangaia you should go with him and meet your all island cuzzy as well as see the island itself. Your father would love to take you and rest of the siblings to the mother land and he will be a proud man.
Here is your chance to help set you and your father GOAL.
Have a safe and successful journey
Ka Kite Ano
