Talofa Samoa!

The Team By

    Your arrival in Samoa was so painfully distant just a couple of weeks ago. Your resolve has been tested to the limits. Yet here you are, I don’t have the words to describe my relief and pride at your achievement. Well done all, farewell Lizanne your contribution is immeasurable, you will miss and be missed. Welcome Meg, you will fit right in. Enjoy your last chunk of civilised hospitality before the final chapter in this enthralling adventure. When in a couple of months you will be entered into the record books and justifiably hailed heroes. XX

  12. Congratulations! Well done! Glad to hear that you are being treated to some well earned South Pacific hospitality. Enjoy! xx
