Ke hoʻohana nei i ka hapa nui o ko lākou manawa ma Seychelles, holo ka male i Praslin ma luna o kahi catamaran a hoʻolimalima i kahi kaʻa e kipa aku ai i ka mokupuni i ka wā leʻaleʻa. 33 mau makahiki ma hope o kāna kipa mua ʻana i Seychelles, e mālama ana i kāna ʻōlelo hoʻohiki iā ia iho ma luna o Anse Lazio nani, ua kū hou ʻo Roger ma ke kahakai one, akā i kēia manawa me kona hoa aloha.
I ka makahiki 2013, ua hoʻi hou ʻo Roger lāua ʻo Joan i Seychelles a hele i kahi ʻē aʻe, ua kipa mua lākou i Denis Private Island.
"ʻO kēia lā hoʻomaha ka hoʻomaha kupaianaha loa a mākou i loaʻa ai i ko mākou ola, me ka noʻonoʻo ua huakaʻi mākou i ka honua, ua kūpono nā mea āpau. He maikaʻi ke ʻano o ke ʻano, he mea kupanaha ke kai, a hiki iā mākou ke ʻauʻau a me ka snorkel. He aloha nā malihini ʻē aʻe akā ʻaʻole hoʻopiʻi, mahalo mākou i ka pilikino o kēlā me kēia akā ua hele maikaʻi i ka wā ʻaina. Ua maikaʻi ka meaʻai a me ka noho ʻana. Makemake mākou i kahi kaʻawale a maikaʻi loa ʻo Denis Island, "wahi a lāua.
Hoʻomanaʻo ʻia ko lākou lā hoʻomaha 2013 i ko lākou hoʻi ʻana i Somerset, loaʻa iā lākou kahi ʻīlio Labrador a kapa ʻia ʻo ia ʻo Denis. Ua ʻōlelo ka Porter-Butlers, ʻo ka moʻolelo e pili ana i ka inoa o kā lākou ʻīlio e hāʻawi mau iā lākou i kahi manawa kūpono e kamaʻilio e pili ana iā Seychelles a me ko lākou aloha i nā mokupuni. I ka makahiki 2015, ua hoʻi lākou i Denis, kahi i hoʻolauleʻa ai i ka lā hānau 60 o Joan.
“ʻO kā mākou ʻike maikaʻi loa ʻo Denis Private Island no ka mea makemake mākou i nā wahi maluhia mai ka lehulehu. Makemake mākou e hoʻi mau i ka mokupuni ʻo Denis i nā manawa a mākou e hiki ai, "i haʻi aku ai ʻo Joan.
Ma 2016, ua hoʻoholo lākou e koho i kahi mokupuni ʻē aʻe e makaʻala a kipa aku i ka mokupuni ʻo Cerf kahi i hauʻoli ai lākou i ka snorkeling a puni Cerf, e noho ana ma South Point Villas a hauʻoli i nā huakaʻi kūʻai maʻamau i Mahé.
I ka makahiki 2019, ua hoʻi mai lāua e hoʻolauleʻa i ka lā hānau o Roger he 80 makahiki, e koho ana i kēia manawa e noho ma Chateau de Feuilles ma Praslin, he hōkele a lāua i ʻike ai i ko lāua kipa ʻana ma 2011. I ko lāua noho ʻana, ua hauʻoli lāua i ka kipa ʻana i ka mokupuni ʻo Grande Soeur a me ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana iā Praslin. .
ʻOiai ʻaʻole hiki iā Joan lāua ʻo Roger ke hele i Seychelles i 2020 ma muli o ka maʻi maʻi maʻi, ʻaʻole mamao loa nā mokupuni mai ko lākou manaʻo a ke hoʻolālā nei lākou i kahi huakaʻi i nā mokupuni i 2022.
Ua ʻae like nā kāne e noho mau ana ʻo Seychelles i kā lākou ʻike maikaʻi loa ma muli o ka nani o kāna mau pua a me nā holoholona, ka maʻalahi o ke ola a me ka maopopo loa, ʻo ka leʻaleʻa o ka ʻono ʻana i kahi iʻa i hoʻomoʻa ʻia i waho o ke kai!
Mai kona hoʻomaha ʻana, hoʻohana ʻo Roger i ka hapa nui o kona manawa e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kāna makemake ʻē aʻe, ka pena kiʻi; hiki iā mākou ke ʻaʻa e manaʻolana ʻo kekahi o kāna mau hana kaulana loa ʻo ia kekahi o ko mākou mokupuni? Manaʻo mākou e hoʻokipa i ka Porter- Butlers i Seychelles.
