                Can you guess who I am?

Have you ever been to the small, remote island 

located in the southwest of Tutuila?   It is an island 

of magnificent sights, and a place where cruise 

ships stop on their way to Tutuila, American 

Samoa.

                   Sina and Tigilau

Legends tells of a couple who long ago, traveled 

from Fiji to Manu'a. During their trip, a storm 

forced them to take shelter on my north shore. 

Days passed and there was no change in the 

weather so they decided it was best to stay on this 

island. They eventually turned to stone, and these 

are the rock formations called, Sina and Tigilau.

We sure do go to church every sunday. Some 

people go to the Church of Jesus Christ of 

Latter Day Saints,the Congregational 

Christian Church and the Assembly of God.

               A.P Lutali Elementary School

A very special school is located on my eastern shore. 

There are four school buildings with a monument in the 

front. The monument displays the name of the school, 

Aifili Paulo Lutali, one of American Samoa's first 

gorvernors and one of the first islanders to hold such a 

high position. There are 103 students that attend A.P 

Lutali Elementary School. While much of the school 

needs repair after years of bad weather, it stands 

proudly year after year in its remote location.

                         Quicksand

Another interesting landmark can be found on 

my northern part. It appears to be a covering 

of white sand but be careful. Tall dark trees 

surround it and black birds rest on their 

branches. Don't step onto the white sand 

because once you do, it will be your home 

forever. What appears to be sand is heartless 

and selfish and will swallow you up. It is 

known as Quicksand.
