Saturday Ron joined some High Priest members of the Vaiola Ward for an excursion to Falelima on the western tip of the island of Savai'i. They met at a fale (like an open air covered platform on stilts) and the day was spent fishing and eating. In Ron's words: "We had a great time but the waves were a bit large and the water too disturbed to catch many fish. We had a traditional Samoan style feast of fish, chicken, fruit bat, and fire roasted pork along with Taro leaves, Taro, Cocoa Samoa, and a breakfast pancake that is more like a biscuit. Yes, the bat was different but edible and very lean meat."
Happy Father's Day! In Samoa it is celebrated in August.
