the other Samoa: other stuff

Apparently there's a bit of a speeding problem on Upolu. We didn't see any posted speed limit signs, but we did see a bunch of hand written signs saying "slow down, it's not worth it" or "slow down - heaven is full."
We stayed at a budget/backpacker hotel the first few nights we were in Apia. The accommodations weren't the best, but the owners kids lived there (insta-playmates!).
And they fed us delicious breakfast every morning. And there was a pig in a pen in the backyard (a really little pen), which the kids thought was really cool since we kept seeing pigs and piglets roaming the villages we drove through.

We saw the 100 meter high Papapapaitai Falls.
And we had delicious Giordano Pizzas - mmmm!
