Who's who on Hollywood Boulevade

Friday afternoon and Ave' was out on Hollywood Boulevade barking, I couldn't see anything.


Hang on what's that up the road?


A cow or a donkey?


Oh hello, this one was hiding in all the long grass.


Good boy Ave', I enjoyed strolling the boulevade with cows.

Aqua Plain

The Cane Fields are Flooding. The beach is eroding. The She-oaks roots are exposed. The little fellas' hair has been tamed by a blue-haired lady in a funky jump-suit. The limitations of wet weather were overcome when Grandpa's old toolbox was discovered. The magical contents of Grandpa's toolbox have been put on display inside the house, a new toolbox dedicated to Grandpa and all the making men in the family. The flood waters closed all roads to school, prompting an excursion to a big kids place of learning.  Where the locals were  friendly and inquisitive. Thank goodness for paper, scissors, elastic and staples - real life savers over another wet weekend.

Sometimes living in Samoa is like living inside a large petri dish of disease. Over the past two years we have experienced a range of viruses and the like, if we were living in Australia DOCs would be becoming suspicious!   Recently Smiley was stung by a nasty orange wasp, these big fellas agressively defend their nests in October and on our first year here one attacked Bunny, chasing him into the house and stinging him five times.  The welts are nasty and Bunny still has some scars. The next day Smiley came to show us his red shoulder and I observed some other small r ed spots on his torso. His mate at school had just been diagnosed with Chicken Pox although he had been immunised in Australia.  Smiley has also been immunised but these Samoan viruses are strong and Smiley ended up with some red spots sans blisters, fever and pain.  Little did he know he got off lightly. Bunny happily ended up having three days off with Smiley, with a mere th...
