VIDEOS FROM "COOK ISLANDS NEWS"
Cook Islands News, the local daily newspaper, has created two fascinating videos on very different aspects of life. The first is about the annual cultural dance competition - islanders are passionate about dance and this is the premier event in the Islands. The second looks back at February and March, 2005 when the Islands were battered by five cyclones in five weeks.
