  • A quick trip to Savaii for a couple of family events. The trip on the ferry was affected by the weather but was still enjoyable.

    SSC do such a great job with the ferries. I haven't travelled to Savaii in 20 years but I remember even back then the ride was comfortable on the Lady Samoa II. Now they have an even bigger Lady Samoa III and this MV Fasefulu which looks just as comfortable for a smaller vessel. I can't wait to return to Samoa and travel the big island again when borders open up.

    I really, really enjoyed this video! It was like a documentary for those of us that have never been there or rode the fairy between islands. Loved reading all your comments at the bottom, that made the video very enjoyable. Near the beginning, when the people got wet, it was nice that they just laughed it off and didn't get mad or yell! The ocean looked not too rough this day....my wife, when she lived there for a while with her grandparents, had to ride the boats a lot from one island to the other. She tells us a story of one time the sea was so rough that it scared her to death....and until this day, she refuses to get on any type of boat or ship!🤣
    If we get to come there in a couple of years, do they also have rental cars when you off-load from the ferry? Or, do you only have the option of taxi or bus? I chuckled to myself at the end when I saw the food vendors when you got off selling Bongo's! I just drove like 30 miles today because my wife was craving some.🤗
    God Bless family, that you for such an informational video!💞🙏

      Thanks for your support. Big fans of your channel, so good to see how other Samoans live in different parts of the world. There are car rental companies located in town, about a 5-10 minute walk from the wharf but are usually fully booked during peak season. Faafetai lava le lagolago ma le maimoa mai.

    Wow the wharf changed immensely and the carpark has expanded. Great memories where we used to fish and swim/dive at the wharf where the ferry is moored at salelologa when visiting our cousins in Savai'i during the xmas and school holidays (wharf wasn't fenced off back then and not many locals so it was very safe and secure).

They even visited my Grandmother's family in Asau ❤as they drove over the whole island.

    @islanddream8306 Před rokem

    Is there anyone from Samoan Citizens who could help me to find my Family Ancestors who are from Upolu Village, The Historical Content of
    Gilbertese Mythology
    The universal belief of the modern Gilbertese race is that its
    forefathers came from Samoa: they grew up on the branches of
    the ancestral Tree in Upolu, and lived in the land until the Tree
    was broken. When that catastrophe came upon them, they scattered over the ocean to populate other islands. The adventures
    and the canoe names of a few who reached the Gilbert Islands
    have been preserved.
    The Samoan tradition is set out clearly in their myths and
    legends-a vast mass of material indicating that Samoa was
    the last home of the race before it reached the Gilbert Islands
    and that Samoa, and Samoa alone, was the ancestral land of the
    race.
