Day one tour of the Long house and Museum

Here's a few photos from the tour Khyla, Elenor, Justine, Kristi and Takiwai took around the long house and the museum of Anthropology. They were lucky to have Linc Kesler (long house director) guider them around and explain many of the carvings and images. Apparently the museum is a must see. With a few amused by some of the carvings.
