LEE A. WOOD

I am not sure where we were as we had twisted and turned down several side roads

The starting point was similar to the base of any ski resort. However, though we were going to take a chair lift, we were not going skiing.

The lift would not take us to the top, and, luckily, we wouldn't walk the rest of the distance.

We did, however, climb more stairs than I cared for. And coming back down to the chair lift the stairs were, narrow and steep.

All in all, though, I did enjoy the experience.

Be sure to take some water with you, and maybe grab a snack at the base before you go up.

(Large Putas on the side of the mountain.)

This young lady will meet you at the entrance and put a daub of paint on your cheek. Because I took her picture she dabbed both of my cheeks and my nose.

(Central courtyard.)

The girls get everyone to join hands and circle about the fire, while chanting.

(Girl comes toward me with arms outstretched.)
(Girl gives me a hug.)

Maybe it was because I had extra paint on my face, all the girls wanted to hug me.

(Girl on my back with arms around my neck.)
A student from New Zealand used my camera to take these pictures.

Their shorts would catch on fire and they would hop around the stage beating out the flames.

THESE DANCERS CAME OFF THE STAGE TO CUDDLE ME
