Sounds awesome happy new year for 2007, glad to see your backs holding out. Sounds pretty good what your doing.. Too much physical work for me though. How long you plan on being there for?
Take it very easy...
wow I don't know whether to be jealous of you or to be fearing for your life! :) I think I am more on the side of being jealous. Good to hear from you. By the way, the spider web wall hanging from your annual Christmas party has truly become a fixture of the department where I'm doing my graduate assistantship -- I'll send pics soon if I can. -- Jay
Sorry Mike - Blew my travel funds on Skiing You'll have to wait on the shredder trip down the Zambezi. I'm spending too much money on Skiing. Alta last week, Italy in Jan and maybe Alta in Mar.
I might even end up on a crew delivering a 72' Alden from Antigua to the Med this spring. AC, 42" plasmas, push button winches and tons of Mt Gay. It's a longshot but Sammy might come through.
Glad to see your back on the Journey and not in rehab. If we find your roll where should we send it?
Sure you don't want to come back and paddle the Chattooga at 1.1ft? Has anyone open boated the Zambezi? I need to install some pumps on the ole open boat and fire it up...haha!

your blog doesnt really say anything useful at all... apartheid and the holocaust are about as different as a fly and an elephant. it is insulting to jews to compare the two.
Finally you have left us, we thought you somehow made your way back to double bay. Looks as though you are having fun. There are 2 things that I relate to the south of america: Possum soup and the movie "deliverence".. Did Daz email you the photo of you and olga? Daz is in love now, shut the gates for "Daz Abbott". Have fun over there and watch out for the dodgey criminals, you idiot.
where are you Mad Mike, is it true you have finally left Sydney.Rumor has it Daz and Clint saw you shopping at Double Bay Warehouse yesterday, or were they joking as usual?
nice tie, slick! Farrell, you are having too much fun -- and I'm terribly jeolous! Anyway, you'll have to write soon to let us know if you ever really made it out of Sydney.
Love the Olga. That's what Matt will get the next time he misbehaves. :)
light beer Hey Mike
Daz told me I'd been published on your blog.
Never forget that light beer in Australia is low-alcohol... haha :) [And it doesn't beat water!]
Have fun on the rest of your travels.

Thankyou - Mad Mike Mad Mike - It was our pleasure (speaking on behalf of Daz,Ants and I) that you landed here with us in Sydney.Although you tend to have much etiquette for the female population, and morals which we do not always support it has been fun times and theres always a place to stay if you return. But I'm sure well venture to Atlanta sooner than later so you can show us your neck of the woods.Just remember some aussie/kiwi slang sayings and spread them around the world: chop,shalacking,good sorts and of course last but not least SLAPPERS.
Hi! Hi sailor!
I finally read your blog ! Will print preatty soon some pages to read in the train in Paris on my way home!! All the best to you and Paul.

Hey Farrell, got an Evite to a Halloween party. Want to come? I can forward it on to you. Actually, my brother sent it, and its at my house. You can even stay here if you want. Nice blogs. Hope you get to keep on the traveling ways. DTK
Hey Pledge Bummer to hear about the back. Get it taken care of so you can come hit lead-off for the softball team. We are in the playoffs for the summer session!!!
still reading Farrell, I check in every once in a while and glad to see the saga continues. "Straight on till morning" sounds like a nice way to navigate. I'm sure the trip has been a more than you thought it would be so far. The stories are cool. I'll check in again soon. dave-o
I've decided that I've had enough of the working world. So.... I've quit my job to travel for awhile. Until the money runs out or I get tired. We'll see what happens...
