SO was just catching up on this reporta and I thought of something funny, but funny interesting not funny hilarious. When we got back I went back to my tattoo artist to get a tat I had designed before the trip. Some of you have seen it either on facebook or other places and you know I love the Polynesian style. I just read the above comments and thought in my tattoo is a turtle and I based it off of this Maori meaning

The turtle, or honu, is another important creature throughout all Polynesian cultures and has been associated to several meanings. The word hono designating the turtle in Marquesan language has also other meanings, among which we'll report "to join, to stitch
together", which may explain why the turtle also represents union, family (another explanation may be the fact that sea turtles cross the whole Ocean to reach the shore where they were born and where they'll give birth to their own babies).

And now the meaning is stronger to me. Love you guys

LOVE this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And funny enough, one of my first carvings from Jamaica is a little turtle I was actually given by a very nice old man near the lighthouse. It sits in our living room, and has lasted through a small dog chew toy mishap where he lost part of his tail....hahahaha but he still endures!

And we will always migrate back to the same beach...same time...same place. RIGHT???

LOL

ONENESS

[marley9808]

Awwww you guys! That is perfect.....the turtle meaning really is on now.....yes, just like turtles we shall return to our beach of birth each year (to lay our eggs....HA lets leave this part out) but you get the meaning....I miss all of you too just like the catz said, every minute, every day!
Love Fest!

[TizzyATX]

Yeah, ummm...think I will leave the "actual" laying of the eggs to you rookies...Hahahaha cause I'm done thank you.

I got good pointers though lol, and will be more than happy to offer up my moral support!!

Love my turtles <3
