From colleen:
Feeling blue and all stressed out? Missing family, and friends no doubt. It's time to mingle and spend the day at a Luau feast with fun and play! With the other team you can brag and boast, but the reward prize goes to who eats the most!
All day Reward Challenge Luau! Wednesday at Challenge Beach stop by anytime between 10AM and midnight central. no-brainer challenge guaranteed!,
From Colleen
As you approach the beach you hear wonderful native music and see a row of 5 young girls in grass skirts and modest gathered tube tops as they dance a form of the hula, in slow patterned movements. Older women in muumuus stand across from them and are singing in some of what sounds like the choir music on sundays. As you walk between them, a feast and food and flowers greets your eyes.
You see heaped platters of grilled tuna, bowls of steaming ramen noodles mixed with chicken, or beef, chicken teriyaki, sushimi and rice, fafa, a local delicacy of balls of sweet taro covered with a caramel sugar sauce. You see a mouth-watering sukiyaki dish with meat and papaya, fresh tapioca coconut pudding, there is um mas (baked breadfruit), trays of kutak (steamed taro) and a huge bowl of ainpat (banana mixed with coconut milk and breadfruit). A platter of sirloin pepper beefsteaks has been brought in from nearby Pohnpei for the feast, and there are loaves of fresh breads and even baked banana bread. For dessert you see pineapples, and fruit salads of all kinds. A pig is prepared to be roasted later, and it looks like that will be the main course later in the day, but until then there are dozens of delicacies to try and taste!,Gia stands in the center welcoming each player as they arrive. there are tables and benches to eat at, plus blankets on the sand. there are frisbees and a few boardgames and a nice fire around which to sit and eat and just talk.
Mandy Estelleita
"Hi, my name's Mandy! I am here for a few minutes. I can only stay a few minutes, but will pop in again later. I have water boiling back at camp to purify it and I can't let it boil dry."
Mandy looks at the food longingly...
11:55
Mandy Estelleita
"Gia, who all is coming to the party? This looks like a lot of food!"
Mandy spies the frisbees and thinks that is what she wants to play with first!
11:57
Gia tells Mandy, everyone from both tribes is invited.. :)
12:04
Gia waves her hand at all the food, "help yourself! Everything is great." There is milk, iced tea, sodapop and even chocolate milk for beverages.
12:07
Mandy Estelleita
Mandy says, "Thank you, Gia for holding this Luau! We have all been so hungry for other foods. This will be a real treat!"
Mandy walks over to the foods and helps herself to some of the ramen noodles with beef and some of the balls of Taro in caramel sauce. They all look great! She doesn't want to seem too hungry so she stops herself and takes her plate over to a table...
12:09
Mandy Estelleita
Mandy jumps up when she hears Gia mention soda pop! "Do you have Pepsi?" she asks eagerly.
12:10
Mandy Estelleita
All too soon, Mandy remembers the water boiling back at camp. "Oh, I've got to get the water off the fire back at camp!" she says. She promises to try to return later. It looks like so much fun!
12:12
Gia laughs, "we have Pepsi, Coke, Mountain Dew and Root Beer!"
She gets herself a plate of sukiyaki and digs in.
12:13
Lola arrives and takes in the buffet, her eyes getting wider as she sees just how many choices there are. She eagerly fills a plate with sukiyaki, tapioca, banana bread, and ramen noodles, then grabs a glass of chocolate milk. Milk is one of the things she's missed most since being on Kosrae. As she heads for a table, she stops by Gia. "Wow, I can't believe all this. Thank you. And please thank the producers too." She goes to a table and settles down to eat.
13:07
Gia is noshin on a bowl of the tapioca when Lola arrives. She points to a bunch of native men setting large rocks lining a firepit ner where the whole pig is prepared, complete with a piece of fruit in its mouth....
"That's the umw (pronounced oom rhymes with zoom)...it is a firepit that has heated rocks in it, and they pull the rocks, and put the pig in it...then they pile the hot rocks on the pig, cover the umw with banana leaves or taro leaves, the large ones, to keep the steam in, and they roast the pig that way. When it is done, they are going to put it on a large platter on its back, and carve pieces off it for us."
13:21
Inita
Inita shyly joins the party. She helps herself to grilled tuna, ramen noodles with chicken, tapioca coconut pudding, ainpat, fresh bread, fruit salad, and chocolate milk. That should do for the first trip to the buffet. ;-)
Inita settles herself on a blanket to dig in. She carefully paces herself for a long day of eating ahead.
13:32
Gia says "feel free to talk with the other tribe folks, this is your first chance to get to know the people who could be your new tribemates in 3 weeks when you merge."
"The challenges today are fun games, and participation is voluntary, but there are some fun prizes to be won each round, so if or when you want to play, we need 1 player from each tribe to step up and whenever there are 2 players ready I will run a game... "
13:38
Lola listens attentively. "How interesting," she says between bites. "I've never seen a pig roasted before. Does it taste like pork chops or maybe bacon?" she asks hopefully.
13:41
Gia smiles, "it tastes like ham, but some parts of it are juicier than others. It's very rich flavored."
As you chat the native women bring out even more dishes, flavored white sticky rice that has been formed in molds shaped like a fish, a crab, a canoe, and a dolphin (or maybe it is a shark), rice that has been dyed either yellow and red for a really festive look, there is some potato salad, and sweet fried bananas, (really plantains). By the way the plates are woven squares of palm fronds. If you are thirsty, in the cooler, peek in and you will see any canned soda you can imagine, mixed in with drinking coconuts that are really yummy chilled!
13:47
Lola decides to make the first move. She moves her plate a little closer to her tablemate. "Hi Inita. I'm Lola. I think we raced in the boat races, didn't we?"
13:50
Lola continues, "I can't believe all this food. Wow, we will all have tummyaches for sure. My tribe is getting very tired of eating the same thing all the time. How about yours?"
13:54
Inita
Hi, Lola. Sorry, I was too busy stuffing my face to talk. :-)
Wow! I can't believe this FEAST! I figure this first helping will make me sick, but then the rest should stay down OK. So far, so good, though.
We raced? I really can't remember, sorry. I have been distracted lately - missing home.
13:57
Lola nods. "Me too. We have all been talking about our families and it has made me homesick."
13:59
Lola hesitates. "Do you want to try the challenge? Maybe we'll get extra points for being first." She giggles at her joke.
14:02
Inita
Sure, I'm up for a challenge now that I am just about done with my yummy food. (As she belches poitely behind her hand)
14:14
Lola calls to Gia. "Hey, we're ready to try this. I hope it isn't an eating contest because we're both pretty full."
14:17
Gia laughs at Inita's ladylike belch... "Okay girls!!! this is between just the two of you... the game is simple, Inita can start and she names a celebrity, comedian, actor, author, whatever, alive or dead, and the LAST letter of their last name is what Lola has to start her word with... Like if I said Robin Williams, the next person sould have to name a comedian that starts with S. the first person who can't name a name on their turn (and I'll allow 2 minits at most between postings) loses.
"The prize is! Ta-DA!" Gia pulls out a box of ho-ho snacks. To keep for yourself or share with your tribe...
14:19
Inita
(laughing at Lola's comment about eating too much)
(She belches again, behind her hand.)
14:20
Gia corrects herself, well they wouldn't have to name another comedian, it could be any type of celebrity as long as the letters match...
14:21
Inita
Here goes nothing.... Britney Spears!
14:21
Gia nods, "Good one! now Lola needs to name a celebrity whose first or last name starts with s

Time to go get more food. :-)
14:49
Lola heads back to the buffet, her box of hohos tucked under her arm. They will come in handy later when there is not so much food around.
14:50
Inita
(shakes Lola's hand)
You're smart, too!
14:50
Gia laughs, "that was fun! I kept waiting for someone to do a X name! hahaha"
14:51
Inita
Passing by the buffet for a second time, Inita picks a dolphin shaped sticky rice cake/patty, sweet fried bananas, a drinking coconut, and sirloin pepper beef steak. Yum!
15:01
Inita
to Gia, I was trying to think of a good name that ended with a hard letter. But it was hard. I thought I was a gonner on that "X" name.
15:02
Inita
Settles on her blanket again to eat.
15:05
Gia says "I saw that Xuxa show a few times, lots of people dressed up as animals but Xuxa the hostess, she wore the funniest outfits!"
15:07
Meggie
Meggie walks over to Inita and her new friend Lola. "Hi Inita". She turns to Lola and says, "Hi my name is Meghan, but I am mostly called Meggie." Meggie is thrilled by all the food and runs over to get some of the beef and vegies and a pepsi.
15:25
Meggie
Meggie goes over to Gia, trying to stuff in a big mouthful of food. "Hi Gia.....this food looks wonderful. I am going to eat as much as I can! I hope my teammates come over soon".
15:27
Gia welcomes her, "Hi Meggie! Enjoy enjoy! there is tons of food. and later we have Nina Coladas, non-alcoholic pina colada milkshakes..."
15:32
Meggie
"Oh yummmmmmm. I can't wait to taste one!"
15:48
Gia reaches into the prize bag and has something in her hand... "Whenever someone is ready to play another game, I need 1 player from each tribe to let me know they are ready...."
15:57
Meggie
"I'm ready Gia"
16:02
Mandy Estelleita
Mandy returns to challenge beach and is hungrier than this morning. She hears Gia call for another contest. "I'll play!" she happily states...
16:03
Gia pulls out the prize first, a deck of cards!!! That should help the days go by more quickly.
Gia says "This game is simple, I ask one question of each you, 10 questions per, whoever gets the most right wins the cards! If it is a tie I'll give you both a deck of cards!

Aggie goes over to fill her plate up and grab a pepsi....her tummy rumbles at the sight of all the food. "Hi Gia, thank you for the opportunity for all this food!"
16:08
Gia asks her questions:
Mandy, which of your tribemates chose vanilla as her favorite ice cream flavor? Lola, Lyda Ruth or Roxie?
Meggie, Which of your tribemates chose Cherry Garcia as her favorite ice cream flavor? Inita, Lollie, or Marissa?
16:08

16:09
Aggie

16:10
Gia waves to all the folks just showing up, "no helping on these questions from the peanut gallery" hahaha!
16:11
Gia nods to Aggie and Roxie, "you to can go up against each other right after this little game."
16:12
Meggie
"I'll guess Lolli"
16:12
Roxie
That will be great! It will give me some time to eat!
16:12
Aggie
"Hi Roxie"
16:14
Mandy Estelleita
"Uh...not sure, so I'll take a guess...was it Lola?"
16:15
Gi says, "Mandy, nope! it was Roxie, Lola picked double choc. chip!"
"Meggie, wrong too, Lollie picked choc chip cookie dough and Inita picked Cherry Garcia! "
16:17
Roxie
Hi Aggie! Good to meet you!
16:18
Meggie
"Oh gee....sorry Inita...I didn't remember that"
16:18
Inita
Doh!!
16:19
Gia: "Next question! Mandy: the same magazine is the favorite of 3 out of the 4 Ocono gals. is it Fortune, Barbie Bazaar, Dollhouse Miniatures, or Sports Illustrated?
Meggie, Is Pierre's favorite magazine Time, National Geographic, Fortune or Barbie Bazaar?
16:20
Roxie
This food sure is delicious!
Hey is there a faster way to post than what I"m doing. Going from page to page?
16:20
Aggie
"good to meet you too Roxie!"
16:21
Gia to Roxie, not really, just keep using your back bar once you hit enter...
16:22
Mandy
"That's easy! Barbie Bazaar!" she giggles.
16:22
Roxie
OK thanks
16:23
Meggie
"Gee Pierre is always talking about places so I will guess National Geographic"
16:23
Gia laughs, guess we will go for 5 questions each not ten hahah!
here are the next two questions for you to think about and answer...
Mandy is the most popular pizza topping in Ocono mushrooms or peperoni?
Meggie, is the most popular pizza topping in Nicarong pepperoni or olives?
16:24
Gia nids, Mandy you are right! that's 1 point for you, Meggie, sorry, his favorite is Time.
16:25
From Gia, "Here are the next 2 questions!"
Mandy, is the most popular lunchmeat in Ocono olive loaf, ham, or bologna?
Meggie is the most popular lunchmeat in Nicarong pastrami, ham or turkey?
16:27
Mandy
"Pepperoni!" Mandy shouts while jumping up and down.
16:27
Meggie
"Pepperoni????"
16:28
Mandy
"Ummm...I think bologna..."
16:29
Meggie
"Ugh....turkey???"
16:30
Gia shouts, "YES! you are both right, that's 2 points for Mandy, and 1 for Meggie"
Next questions! Same question to both of you: the same two sports are favorites of players on both Ocono and Nicarong. Which TWO of the 5 following sports are the favorites of at least 1 player on each team? Hiking, Swimming, Wrestling, Surfing, Soccer?
16:31
Gia: on the lunchmeats, you are both wrong! Ham is the favorite of both teams! no points for either one
16:32
Mandy
"I think hiking and I am sure of soccer!" she says with a laugh.
16:33
Meggie
"The favorites are swimming and soccer"
16:34
Mandy
"Oops. I almost guessed ham, but I like bologna!" "Sorry guys!" she says as she looks at Roxie and Lola.
16:35
Gia says "last question! same question to both of you, 75% of each team all chose a favorite ice-cream flavor containing what sweet?
16:35
Gia laughs! "the two favorite sports are swimming and soccer!! it's a tie game, 2 points each :)"
16:36
Mandy
"Oh, Gia, was it chocolate chip?" "I know I love those!" "Maybe cookie dough too!" she says with a grin and a giggle.
16:37
Meggie
"Gee I would guess choc chip cookie dough also......I LOVE that!"
16:40
Gia laughs and hands each girl a colorful deck of cards. "You're both right It's a tie game! You both win!!!!"
16:42
Gia smiles, "Chocolate chip and chocolate fudge seemed to be the most popular varieties. Roxie and Aggie, whenever you are ready you can go head to head."
16:44
Meggie
Meggie hugs Mandy....."Oh goody...that is a wonderful way to win...I love it when we both win don't you Mandy. Look what I got guys.." Meggie runs over to show Aggie and Lolli.

16:49
Roxie
"...8-9-10....done!"
16:50
Aggie takes ten steps back
16:51
Gia then thinks a minute, "Let's say I like balloons but hate toys, I like raccoons, but hate possums. I hate the flute but love the bassoon. Now each of you name a flower and ifI like it you get to move forward 1 step! whoever reaches me first wins..."

16:55
Lola
"Congratulations, Mandy. You did a great job. Your challenge was much harder than mine." She turns to the Nicarong players. "Hi. Sorry I didn't answer sooner. I was too absorbed in watching the challenge."

17:25
Gia pats them both on the back. "good job girls! that was a toughie!! hahahah. let's all have those pina colada milkshakes now!!!!" A native girl brings out a tray of them, served in coconuts with long silly shaped straws.
17:25
Meggie
"Yummmmmmm. These are so good. I'm going to run back to the camp to try to get the others to come along. It is so much fun here...."
17:26
Inita
Loads up her plate with sukiyaki, chicken teriyaki, fafa, um mas, kutak, banana bread, and a root beer. yum!
Off to settle on a blanket to feast more.
17:27
Lola hugs Roxie. "Great job!" She heads back to the buffet for some of the colored rice and another glass of chocolate milk.
17:31
roxie
that challenge sure made me hungry again. I think I'll load my plate and get some choc milk
17:33
Gia whispers to one of the servers and they bring out a platter of what look just like french fries!!!
Gia gets out a bottle of ketchup and nibbles some of the fries...
Gia giggles "It's really breadfruit, but after they bake it and then fry it like this, it's almost like the real thing!"
17:38
Gia hates to interrupt the feasting players, but says "If anyone wants to play another game just let me know!"
18:32
Roxie
"Those fries are really good Gia! It reminds me of back home!"
18:33
Marissa
Waves hi to everyone :) Her mouth opens wide at the sight of the food.
19:02
Gia welcomes Marissa, "Looks like you are just in time! they are almost ready to serve the roast pig!"
"Hey if you want to play a game maybe there is an Ocono player who can play against you, any takers?"
19:15
Meggie
"Hooray for Marissa......it's a lot of fun...."
19:38
Trey
Trey comes running out of the jungle, " Ok guys, I heard you a mile away laughing and couldn't wait to get here, so I ran the rest of the way. I was almost able to catch up with Marissa".
20:18
Trey looks at all the food. "Wow, Wow, Wow! Where do I start, can I get something to drink?"
20:22
Gia laughs, "start anywhere you like Trey! there is tons of food, tons of drinks, and it looks like the roast pig is sliced and so folks can try some of that! Remember if anyone wants to play a game just tell me so and I need one player from each team for any game."
20:24
From Colleen, a bunch of native men come in and start playing the drum as Gia and a native girl take ou a long bamboo pole. "It's LIMBO time!!!!!!! Gia calls out" and anyone near can get in line for a limbo game.... "How low can you go? how low can you go?"
20:50
Aggie
"Anyone wanna compete?"
Aggie grabs anothr Peps.

"C'mon Trey!" Aggie grabs Trey's arm.
21:34
Lola turns to the kid behind her in the limbo line. "Maybe we will work off some of that buffet and have room for the roast pig."
21:34
Gia laughs as she lowers the bar to waist level! Watch those kids bend back!
21:38
Roxie
"I'll play another game!"
21:39
Gia hands her end of the bar to someone else so she can run a game with Roxie. "Is there a Nicarong player who wants to play against Roxie?"
21:45
Trey
"Ok Aggie, here goes" he trys to bend way back, is he gonna make it????? Yes He made it "I think that is the last one I'll make it under without crawling on my hands and knees. Go Loli, go Loli, Go Loli!"
21:51
Trey 'Sorry that was supposed to be Lola, not Loli, I combined 2 peoples names"
21:53
Lola shimmies under the poll, holding her breath that she will make it.
21:56
Gia shrugs at Roxie, "As soon as a Nicarong plaer wants to I can run another game! We still have plenty of prizes!"

"OK Gia, I'll wait a little while... The limbo looks like fun!"
