This has been an interesting week. The Measles epidemic is starting to slow down but not without some great effort on the part of the government of Samoa. They shut down the nation on Friday and Saturday so vaccines could be administered more efficiently.
We walked over to the mission home on Friday and looked up and down the street and it was mostly empty.
When things opened up again on Saturday, we took an excursion over to the west side of the Island with some other senior missionaries and a nice young Danish couple who are working in the dental clinic and spent a very relaxing day. Everyone was ready to get out of the house after being locked up for a couple of days.

We have tried to keep the tradition of "Taco Tuesday" alive while we were here but we just can't find a decent taco. We have modified it to Nacho Tuesday because a restaurant on the warf downtown sells a pretty decent plate of nachos for 10 tala (about $4 US). It has a wonderful view of the pier and Apia harbor. We have become good friends with Barbara at the Edge.
