Dad and I at Return to Paradise Beach, circa 1992(?) The beach was named after a Gary Cooper movie, based on a James Michener book. The movie was filmed here.
You can't really even go to this beach any more because now it is a high priced resort.
Really bad camera, but one of the first underwater models ever made. It was good for about 3 uses before the seal failed and water got in the camera, ruining it forever. Ouch for a $300 camera!
Dad is having fun.
Dad in the ubiquitous pose you find on any beach in the world. I look at this picture and think, what I wouldn't give to retake this photograph close up, so I can actually see his face. I am so happy we are returning to Samoa, and I promise I will take a thousand pictures of him.
