We ventured onto some of the beautiful islands around Andavadoake - with the approval of the local presidents of course.. This involved meeting each one and supplying various quantities of rum and sometimes cigarettes too!

Avoiding Exercise
Just fooling around on the computer instead of going for a good healthy swim down the local pool. Looking forward to seeing the next section on your Asian travels. Hope you are enjoying the 'Culture' but remembering your own. Can't help noticing that the comments have dissapeared. Don't worry we haven't forgotten you, so thought you would like to receive one to let you know we are thinking of you constantly. Lots of Love Dad and Mum
