Californian's know class Chickens, pathless paths, clamboring uphill on all fours, amazing adventures Keith. I, for one, was most impressed that you put on clean flip flops for the wedding. ;l/k,
Is someone bring you drinks? If you don't have someone bringing you drinks with little umbrellas, then I VOLUNTEER! Gorgeous place Keith. Big change from frozen canals and your office view. Are you scampering up the coconut trees with your machete? What kind of survival skills have you deployed? Unbelievable. Keep posting!
Blog Hi Keith,
Happy New Year from Bristol.
Really enjoying your blog, sounds like you are having a great time, the Cook Islands look brilliant.
Whilst we enjoyed our stay in NZ about 10 years ago, possibly like you, we thought it was a long way to go for countryside which was no better than home.
As you have probably heard we have had great snow over here for the last couple of weeks, but it has sadly now disappeared.
Enjoy the rest out your trip,
Dave
mystery bird Hi Keith,
searched a bit and could not find info about the mystery bird.
So I found a website with info about birds on Rarotonga and sent the expert there an email with photo.
Will let you know what comes back!
Enjoy the rest of the trip!
Kia orana Keith Keith,
Hope one of those rugby balls in the palm trees didn't fall on your head as you ambled away from the beach, heading for the mountains. Am eagerly awaiting the next instalment (this one was 12 days'ago!). It all sounds fantastic...
bonjour And bonjour (hello) from the island of Brussels. There are indeed distinct parallels in our respective situations: in your blog you were surrounded by the Pacific ocean and, geographically at least, marooned, we are marooned in snowdrifts; you had your tropical breakfast on the beach, we had hot porridge as close to the radiator as possible; you had your polynesian bath, I had a hot bath to try to warm up. The fun and games will really start here on Tuesday when the supplies of salt and grit are due to be exhausted. If they are ever replenished I will see you in Amsterdam some time in February, I hope. Enjoy the rest of the trip, Keith, and please upload some pics of ladies in grass skirts to warm us up a bit. And, no, we are not jealous in the slightest!
The travel plan is to travel round the world to celebrate my half century. Leg 1 is Amsterdam to London on 26th December 2009, then on to New Zealand via LA and the Cook Islands, arriving January 1st 2010.... full info
