10 Years, 12 Nights, 6 Hotels, ONE LOVE - April 2012 Trip Report

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

Thank you so much for sharing that, Ninja! That is utterly fascinating. It really enriches the meaning of the whole turtle metaphor. I wonder now how far this meme will reach. In my circle of friends in Germany we call members of the core group “Vögel“ (birds). In German it carries a connotation of harmlessness and being a little, how shall I put it delicately.... “off”, not so bright, lol.

I think turtle turned out to be the perfect term for us Negril birds.
