Polynesian Cultural Center

We all loved visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center. I tried to learn something unique about each of the cultures represented there. Let's see if I can remember:
Tonga: the oldest of the cultures--most of Polynesia trace their roots back to here--never was colonized
Samoa: the men do the cooking
Fiji: Melanesian in skin color, Polynesian in culture
Tahiti: former French colony
New Zealand: fiercer dancing and face tattoos
Hawaii: hula dancing that tells a story with the hands

The evening show was amazing, too. Jet lag wasn't a problem when watching fire dancing!
