Mango Bay Resort- In Mango Bay Resort we got a lot of time to relax and edit our pictures. The first night we were able to go to the Polynesian dancing performance. The fire dancing part was my favorite; it made for great pictures. The second day we spent basically the whole day relaxing and editing pictures.That night we got to meet Ula. She is one of the National Geographic photographers. She gave many presentations throughout our trip that really helped. We also had the opportunity to do a great group critique. It was so helpful to get great feedback from my piers. The second day at Mango bay we left the main island and went to a small island where we visited a school, spent time talking to villagers, and spent time on a beach. In the village, Madiha and I went and met a lady weaving mats. She was so sweet. As we talked, her two children came into the room. One of her kids has six toes! It was amazing! At the beach we played a super fun game of volleyball. Whenever something happened in the game we would yell, "BRETT!" I had a great time. On our way back to the main island, we stopped to go fishing. Our boat hooked on to a fish, and I got to try to reel it in, but the guide tightened the drag, so the line snapped. Fortunately, we hooked on to another fish and I got a second shot at it. When I started to reel it in, it took off to my right, going to the bottom. I waited till it stopped retreating, so it didn't snap the line. Once it halted, I reeled it in all the way to the boat. I was so excited to hold the fish, take pictures with it, and later eat it sashimi style. The next day we left for smugglers cove.
