Some random pictures from Samoa

I am not sure why, but I cannot get any more pictures to upload, so this will be a short post. I will try to add another post soon. For no, though... This is the Kelleys. We are just about to start a hike to the Robert Louis Stevenson memorial. It was very steep in places, but not too sllippery, even though it poured rain for part of the way. We love them. (The Kelleys) They are in their 70's and have the most delightful English accents! She is the nurse and takes good care of us all. We share a vehicle with them during the week and they are in the office right next to ours.




The kitchen in our apartment. You can see our stove in the corner. Things heat up very quickly, here. Water comes to a boil in a minute or two and the oven gets hot very fast as well. I will be spoiled when we return to St. George. Now microwaves are another thing!


Us, with some of our newest and dearest friends. l to r: The Eves from Huricane, the Kelleys, from Canada via England, President and Sister Haleck, from American Samoa, the Bells,from Smithfield, Afolua and her husband, from here on the island, and us. Look at all the men in their short-sleeved shirts! Dad was walking to the temple last week and commented how wierd it felt to have a long-sleeved shirt on! It nearly killed him to start wearing a short-sleeved shirt when we first left.



This is our view as we walk to the mission home each morning. That's the Samoa Apia temple.




We've decided that we are as close to the Garden of Eden as we've ever been! It really does look like this!
