Our son and daughter-in-law generously drove us around the island of Tongatapu and we were able to see many of the local historical sites and places of interest. Unfortunately we didn't attend the Tongan worship service Sunday morning which would have been a highlight. Anyway here are some pictures I took and a couple or more I found that were relevant on the internet. These include Cook's landing site, Tasman's landing site, the royal palace (not lived in as the royals have estates elsewhere) a historical tree. I"ll write about other places we visited later on.
