Halloween in Tonga

Halloween is not a big deal in Tonga, although a few of the expats get into it on a small scale with a few odd looking pumpkins getting around. This year one of the bars in town "Reload" decided to get into the spirit of it all and imported decorations from New Zealand for the bar. I went along with the owner Trish, to check it out after we had been to the Melbourne Cup Culcatta night. Needless to say we were already primed and couldn't believe some of the costumes that showed up. Below is a sample. After the prize giving for best costume, it was home for an early night as the Melbourne Cup function was on the next day.
