'Ikale Tahi Arrive in Auckland

This was the scene at Auckland International Airport as the Tongan national rugby team, a.k.a 'Ikale Tahi, touched down in New Zealand to kick off their 2011 RWC campaign. The RED SEA - Tongans from all over Auckland invaded the airport, and the surrounding roadways, to show their support. 'Alu ai kakai! lol.

KNOW YOUR ROOTS: Tongan Flag Meaning--

The red cross represents the country's belief in CHRISTIANITY. The white stands for purity and the red represents the blood Jesus shed at His crucifixion and reminds Tonga's people that they owe their salvation to HIM. The Tongan flag originated in the 1860s and was adopted on November 4, 1875, making it one of the world's oldest flags. A 1875 law states the Tongan flag should never be altered.
