It is time for a rest before the second part of the festival and time for a chat between the dolphin and whale mums who have the weight of bringing up the children on their flanks. It is also time for Raiatea to prepare for a song he wishes to perform in order to capture the heart of Coral. Whales and dolphins are in the element of the ocean close to divinity, one with creation, and aware of eternal continuation of life.
