Alofa Samoa

Just back from a wonderful family holiday in Savaii Samoa, this is such a wonderful place and I highly recommend. It is the classic hot and beautiful tropical island and you are forced to change your pace to half speed and island time. Mostly spent our time resting, reading and swimming. We stayed at a very nice small resort called Le Lagoto, which sits on a lovely beach and lagoon.

Highlights of trip: Quality time with the family; lovely local people, swimming with turtles, reading two books, tropical fruit, sunsets and stars, swimming in idyllic conditions all the time. Achieving complete rest.

Prior to trip home had become very busy and this break was perfectly timed to get a serious dose of R&R before surgery later this week. I am feeing fit and rested, plus family are in a very connected space.
