Boat Ride

For the visiting judges and clerks the High Court Marshall arranged an around-the-island boat ride with the Marine Patrol. Ned and I gladly invited ourselves to join.

We left Pago Pago Harbor around 8:00 a.m. heading east towards Aunu'u, then around the north side, arriving back in Pago Pago after 3.5 hours. A large amount of the north side is inaccessible, thus we were able to see parts of the island we never would otherwise.
