This week marked midterm for our ITEP class. We handle whatever develops during the course of a week. A few of the Primary School children like to come by our office after school to say hello. We have to encourage them to find their parents who come to pick them up.
Friday night movie for the dorm girls was "The Last Airbender".
On a social note, we've made friends with Elder & Sister Deffense, another Sr. missionary couple on Savai'i whose role is leadership support to the young full time Elders and Sisters on this island. That includes everything from missionary housing maintenance to medical help and even helping stranded tourists. We got together for Family Home Evening Monday night and potlucked our dinner and played table games.
Then Saturday we drove to the site, "Swim with the Turtles", and we literally did swim with turtles, nine of them. The day was perfect; the water clear. The turtles love eating papaya. Their teeth aren't razor sharp and don't hurt. They were gentle creatures which liked to be stroked or to nuzzle. Little fishes were about in the water as well. We spent a few hours there and met visitors from Indonesia, Australia, Brazil, New Zealand, and Chile.
