I didn't know you could write so well, (or is it Melissa) I'm actually reading all of your blogs, sounds like a great time and a big adventure for the kids. Nice photography, see if you can get me Cadel's autograph and a tour T shirt. Take care

Hi Jackson and your adventurous family
Glad to see you are enjoying yourselves. I have just arrived back from Mozambique. God certainly has blessed us, allowing us to live in Australia and yet enjoy the rest of His creation around the world. I pray you gain a greater appreciation for our God and his creation as you continue your travels. Bless you all.

Bonjour!
Yo Freebies, did you see "Tracey loves Scott 1990" scratched into the steel at the top of the Eiffel Tower? I'm sure it hasn't been painted or scratched over in 22 years...the French aren't big on maintenance. Good to see you roaming the continent and having fun. Marcus, I've just finished 6 straight weeks on a DES tender so you know where I'd rather be! Keep the photos and narrative coming guys, it makes life easy for us armchair adventurers! Au revoir. Scott

At school
Hello Hunter, Kae and Itsuki think it looks cold there on the ferry. Do you like traveling? Itsuki travelled to Japan to meet her grandparents. Kae was baptized at her friend's pool. What has been your favorite food so far?
