It was spelled out Pango Pango in the song lyrics I found, maybe just to match the pronunciation. Definitely referring to the place, though I don’t think there really are alligators there. The cooking pot I haven’t heard of.
Apparently Pango Pango was the former name of Pago Pago. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/pango-pango But it’s also a Neopets character known for his role in his cooking pot magic. https://bookofages.jellyneo.net/characters/227/

Issues with Tappatalk again. If anyone else has trouble uploading photos, etc, it helps to just turn the phone off and open another app first when you reboot.

Interesting! What Carol said was interesting about the name spelling change, I don’t know if I noticed that when I was trying to figure this out. I knew it was a place, but was having difficulty figuring out how to find something related. I thought of maybe finding a park that looked similar to the plants and colors I was seeing, but it’s kind of the wrong time of year. So when the Neopets info came up I was kind of fascinated even though I’m generally not into that type of thing. It reminds me of anime which has been a slow process for me to enjoy it too. Not something I grew up with.
Here are some more info in pictures. She? Looks like a rabbit? Or something. I’m having even more difficulty with dancing alligators. Someone in Florida now could probably find more mascots. There’s one or two high schools in Virginia, but info is scarce.
I’ll have to post twice, unfortunately, because tapatalk is making me power off my phone just to post one photo. Two is impossible. Well, impossible for me, because the more it demands money the more I don’t want to give it money. I think these were in the link of my first post.

I love word games – but not the single word kind you play by yourself…. But hey you guys said to be creative….. sooooooo instead, I managed to ride an anagram of my address in miles today [emoji2][emoji2957][emoji1744]
Sorry, Nadine. Your submission doesn’t count because you didn’t do a daily word puzzle. Could you remove the #scavhunt hashtag from your Strava on 2/22?
