Bora Boris, Oh my god, I think that the second photo is a shot of the Tonga Lei after it became Don the Beachcomber! The sign that has been added under the original Tonga Lei sign sure looks like a Don the Beachcomber sign to me. Look at the shape and the lettering. We need a better screen grab to confirm the first visual evidence of the Don's transition. Do you know what year that episode was shot? Based on the article posted previously in this thread, Don's moved in sometime after 1977. I need this for my Don the Beachcomber locations thread! DC
