Despite the out-of-tune music, and forgotten lyrics, this is worth watching because it is a performance by an original CINAT member. There is actually very little footage of the original CINAT performances. If you know the words of the song write it below for the next sing-along session.

When you leave the Saturday market, the team from Tina & Co come in and pack up the tents. This is by far the best service we have seen at the market. Stall owners just rent a tent, table and chairs, and they don’t have to setup, pack up, cart and maintain the tents.
Happy 23rd Birthday BCI with our Aka’Uka girls and the Ice Cream Truck who is also 23 years old.

The Ride Raro Round Rarotonga Cycle Race was held this evening.
We got a shot of them at the start and end because there is no way you can chase these guys.
Coming back to the finish was a race of 4 cyclists.
The first cyclist across the line came back in about 44min47secs (unofficial). It was good to see our very own Roland Neururer in that first four.
The first lady back was our own Lucy McDonald in a time of about 49mins17secs (unofficial.
What a fantastic finish to the week of Tri.

Turning in Avatiu Wharf - MV Imua
ISLAND LIFE: SHIP DAY HAPPY DAY
The MV Imua turning in Avatiu Harbour this morning bringing much anticipated goods. The cargo ship is about 118m long and the allowable turning diameter for the harbour basin is 120m (135 max). So you can understand what an intricate operation this is.
Rarotonga only gets 2 container ships per month, one around the middle of the month, and the other around the end of the month - the Imua and Liloa - both around the same length. This ship however is on time according to the schedule on the Matson website.
