In the wee hours of the morning, I made my way down to Faleolo Airport to pick up Jennifer, my first, and hopefully not last, visitor. For some reason most planes that arrive and depart Samoa do so in the middle of the night. Jen's flight was due in at 1:40am, but with delays in Hawaii, the plane didn't touch down until close to 4 and we didn't arrive at my place until after 5.

Jen had slept on the plane. I had tried to nap, but failed, so I was exhausted all the next day (today). We went into town because I had a meeting at the Peace Corps office. Then I took her to the Steakhouse for lunch to sample the best burger in the South Pacific.

We've got three weeks to get out and explore the islands. I'm really in no rush. We're just going to relax around Apia for the first few days, enjoy the last days of the Teuila Festival, let Jen can get over her jetlag and figure out an itinerary.
