Cultural Days 2013

     Last year, we had only been here a few months and the FSM celebrated Founders Day and had a cultural event all day.   Dancers came from all over Micronesia, from Yap, Chuuk, Kosrae and Pohnpei and most of the outer Islands. It was amazing, we only got a few pictures last year.
    This year we were able to go, but only for an hour, so we only got to see a few things. It was great. Here are some of the pictures of the Dancers, Handicrafts they make, food they eat. We love cultural days.

Each dance tells a story, these girls are the singers and story tellers with the
