Cruise Visitors

Friday November 9, 2012 we had some visitors come on a cruise ship to American Samoa.  Friends from our old ward in Hawaii Kai.  There were 15 all together.  The Fong Gang (6), The Lau Family (4), The Takane's (2), Sis. Wong and Friends (3).  We met up in town, loaded up into three vans (myself, Jason and Lana driving) and off we went.  First stop to the ridge above Aua.  You can make out their cruise ship in the background.

 Brother Takane loved the Palusami on his Diamond head crackers.  

The whole gang...

minus Vili and Riley.  Riley fell asleep in the car on the way to the hotel.  Vili stayed with him so he could sleep.  Vili was a life saver.  She helped me so much getting things pulled together.  Specialt thanks to Vili, Jeremiah (he grated a lot of coconuts for the pe'e pe'e), Sa (delicious puligi), Aunty Cathie (so saved me on a venue and set up...thank you thank you!) and Aunty Carola (always there to help set up and help with the little things...it all adds up).  Oh, I can't forget Lana Goodwin!  She was my 3rd tour guide.  We wouldn't have been able to get anywhere with out her!

It was such a wonderful day with them.  I am so pleased that we were able to spend so much time with them and I hope they enjoyed themselves as much as I did.
