Hello everyone!
This is just a quick update to let you know we are both fine. We have had several emails to check we are okay after the earthquake that hit sumatra. We moved onto Bali on the 25th March so we did not feel anything or even hear about it until we saw it on CNN about 2 hours ago. Those poor people, this will have hit them hard at a time when they are trying to get back on their feet. But knowing the indonesians they will keep smiling and put a brave face on.
No photos on this blog but we will add some soon. We have been chilling out, catching some rays but normally after about 2 hrs we are either too hot or lobster like and slink off to the shade or our room! Big news for us though is we are having surfing lessons with a very sarcastic but great instructor - Aussie Palu. So far james is riding the waves man brilliantly and I just keep getting sent back to the beach to practice my pops ups. Not quite surfing pro standard yet. Great fun but knackering and bruises galore. You would never think the board could bruise you! Surfs up dude.
Hope you are all well and had a fab easter .

Hi,
Cindy and myself are planning a trip around the world beginning on Jan 19th. I say around the world but in fact we are visiting South East Asia and then onto Sydney and New York. The one extraordinary thing that we will be doing is working at an Orang Utan conservation site in Sumatra where we hope to see these amazing creatures in their natural habitat. Enjoy our Site X
