Beautiful photos! Back then there were hardly any boats with outboard motors to pollute the waters, aye!

Funafala should be registered with UNESCO as a world heritage site!

E, ko vaega mea loa penei e se mafai loa o fakapuli iau toku fenua pele i toku loto, ko Funafuti. A tena namo kae manino pela me ne auli loa kise auli. Seai a manatu la mo mafaufauga ko sei ko palele loa ne puke faka video a koga koga o te motu, ofo. Fakafetai kae fakamalo atu mo ata fakafoki loto ki te pogai mo te alaalaaga o Malefatuga se mafai o fakapuli, fakafetai lasi mo ata gali.
