Robert Louis Stevenson grave

[elghian]

I visited Samoa and took photos here in September 1960. I stayed at Aggie Grey's hotel in Apia. Really enjoyed the holiday . I remember the climb too!

What exactly is the wooden structure near the grave. Perhaps an oversized chair?

I was there last month, decided to walk the hard route up the hill and it took forever. RLS legend !!! RIP

Requiem

Under the wide and starry sky,

Dig the grave and let me lie.

Glad did I live and gladly die And I laid me down with a will.

This be the verse you grave for me:

Here he lies where he longed to be;

Home is the sailor, home from sea, And the hunter home from the hill.

Robert Louis Stevenson

I was there in 1971. Not to many people can say they have been there.
