Cameron wins bronze!

Thank goodness! Cameron has won a bronze medal at the beach wrestling yesterday! He had 3 matches and is very happy about his performance as he can add it to his collection of NZ swimming medals and NZ jujitsu medals.
Almost all the competitors have left Samoa as the competition had finished.
I tried to get an earlier flight back today, but couldn't, as it is Sunday and almost everything in Apia is closed. Samoans go to church on Sunday and then have a big meal with their family, so Apia is like a ghost town.
Cameron has gone site seeing with the other remaining Kiwis.
It's so hot here - I sweat like crazy just sitting in the shade! Everyone agrees that even though it is very hot, it's better than Auckland weather as it is a dry heat and not humid.
I interviewed the coach from Pilau, Elgin. He has this impressive brace on his shoulder, but he can still climb coconut trees one armed!
I visited Robert Loius Stevenson's home 'Vailema' yesterday, it's beautiful, and the Baha'i temple as well.
I'm going to find a swimming pool.
