On Friday (his actual birthday) we went to Carl's Jr. for his b-day dinner (balllinnn' lol) and went to see Wolverine at the theater. It's actually a Regal "2" Cinema and is pretty nice albeit the small size. The movie was entertaining. :) Then we walked back "home" to find that the other teachers (to our complete surprise) had made Saul a little banner and baked him brownies that were so delish. I found a candle and even though we didn't put it in a slice of cake, Saul got to make a wish.
We had reservations for the B & B at Tisa's on Saturday so right after lessons at about noon we headed to Tisa's in Alega village. The B & B is the only open-air Fale left in AmSam (Independent Samoa still has an abundance). The room was amazing with a mosquito net and a private balcony that overlooked the cove. Beautiful. The room came with freshly prepared dinner and breakfast. We snorkeled, had some pina coladas, and just spent time getting some much needed R & R.
So while Saul's birthday was not the typical celebration that we always had back in the states, it turned out to be a great weekend in paradise. I'm so happy/fortunate that I got to spend yet another year with the man of my dreams and I look forward to many, many more. :)
P.S. Saul can rent a car!!! WOOOOHOOOO.
The banner the group made for Saul.
