(*) Chief Todd gives a speech
In order to be invited into a Maori marae (meeting house, a sacred place), there must be a person who acts as the leader for the group. I volunteered to be this leader. As such, I was greeted by a warrior as we approached the marae, and once inside I had to give a speech. (More pictures coming later when Kathy gets hers developed!)
