Updated thank you list

Malo lava all ... below is an updated *thankyou* list of all those people who have kindly contributed to the rebuild of Lalomanu village in some way.

This evening I'm going to send out an email to everyone I have email addresses for, directing them to this blog, to make sure they are all aware of how the rebuild is coming along, and how the funds have been used. Looks like the restaurant will be officially open on Friday (Samoa time) this week ... so that's a huge leap forward.

Still the family is waiting for funding to be distributed by the Samoan government, so just about everything they've achieved to date has been accomplished through the kindness and generosity of folks like yourselves!

I'd also like to take this opportunity to say that the bank and PayPal accounts are still open, and that we're still collecting funds. Until the Samoan government steps up and helps out financially, then progress is going to be in small steps, and with the 2010 tourist season approaching, they really want to be up and running so they can get the village self-sufficient once more.

Many thanks to you all, and on behalf of Tai and Sili, I hope you have a wonderful 2010 ahead of you! On that note, Sili is now taking bookings for the Mountain View Fales ... so get your booking in now!

email all bookings to: siliapelu@taufuabeachfales.ws

Alofa tele! xx
