Art Gallery Tiki ...

Ventured from the Secret Island this morning with a school party of unruly natives. I wasn't exactly that inspired by the exhibits at the gallery until I stumbled outside.


Titled Tanifa O Tagaloa it was created by Fatu Feu'u in 2003.


Carved from Australian redgum it is completed with Cook Island black pearl shells. Its an imposing piece standing at 309cm x 103cm x 50cm.

Cruisin ...


Had the pleasure of driving one of these beauties at a wedding at the weekend (The Red one!) Once I conquered the fear of damaging it in any way I relaxed back on the bench seat and cruised along the freeway with some old tunes and the windows down...


When exactly did modern cars lose their soul!?

I'm back ...

Mahalo! I have returned after quite a long break... four months to be exact ... things have been a little hectic here on the Secret Island ... family, work (,cocktail consumption!) and a limited amount of time hall conspired to keep me away from the blog for a while. But I'm back refreshed and ready to bring you more of the same ... but on a slightly more regular basis!
