This photo was taken on the coast road. While they have recently brought in rules that require the wearing of seat belts, there is nothing that requires kids to be restrained in the car, or preventing the use of a ute to ferry people around. The speed limit has been brought down to 40km an hour due to the road switch (a move from right to left hand driving position) so high speeds are a thing of the past. Note the thumbs up. I actually took a few version of his photo and the little girl repeated the pose until I let her know we got it.
This photo is for my colleagues who recently were involved in the implementation of the QLD privacy legislation. It is the patient file room at the National Hospital. Not only open to the environment, but also to the public. I swanned right in there and took photos. In some ways it is a very different world here.
These photos were taken in downtown Apia. The buses are a sight to see here, with all of them painted and many blaring samoan hip hop. Paul wants to do a blog called Pimp my ride in honour of it! The other photo is of the Fungalei markets which has all manner of fresh produce.
These photos were taken at Lanomalu, one of the areas that was devastated by the tsunami. We hired a day fale and within no time the boys had infiltrated a group of Samoan kids (probably by using the secret gang fingers sign). They spent hours pulling sea creatures out of some dead coral, playing rugby on the beach and just generally having a ball. It is one of the most beautiful spots in Samoa, though I will post some photos latter of what it looks like on the other side of the beach- there is still very real damage with the people here believing that aid dollars are being prioritised into roads rather than housing.
