So, as of now I am at "home." Which made me think of home, in general. It's hard for me to call one place my home. I feel at home in Virginia Beach, or my physical home I live in here. As well as when I go back to Washington state, I feel at home at my Grandmother's house. And, of course, I feel right at home in Aiea, Oahu, Hawaii, being that I have native Hawaiian blood in me and a lot of my Dad's side of the family live there. In about a week I will be back in Washington for my and many other of my family's birthdays, as well as a huge pig roast for my Grandfather. And soon after that I will be traveling to Europe. So I decided to make ... read more

Blog 8 About Time - We’re Grandparents! On Monday night October 1st, Dawn had her baby, a beautiful little girl, Ella Sibley Nicholson. She was born 2 weeks early, quite a surprise for all of us. Dawn, Paul, and Ella are doing very well, and Sharon flew home from Norfolk October 3rd. We thought we still had at least a couple of weeks, so we were taking our time moving down Chesepeake Bay. Dawn called Sunday evening while Sharon and I were in Solomon Islands, and said that her water broke and she would be having the baby in the next day. We spent the next several hours trying to decide where and what to do. The 2 issues were, finding a nearby airport, and finding a place to leave the boat for a couple of ... read more

Today was my last day in VA Beach. Seamus and I went golfing for the day. The weather was perfect. Tonight we went out for Mexican food and afterwards we just chilled and watch movies. Red Sox came from behind to win, Yankees lose big! Back to five games. Tomorrow morning I am heading out to Atlanta where I will go to the Braves vs. Giants game. I'll be cheering for Dave Roberts and booing Barry Bonds*!! Here is a link to some pictures from the VA Beach portion of my trip: Virginia Beach and Baltimore Pictures... read more

Hello - I have decided to create this travelblog to keep everyone updated on my progress in New Zealand. I leave tomorrow (1/14) for three weeks to New Zealand. At first, three weeks seemed like more than enough time. Now I'm not so sure. I am renting a campervan which will give me the freedom to travel around the country with the most flexibility. I will post updates (and hopefully some pictures) as I am able. Here's a brief idea of where I might end up: 14 Jan 2007 - 16 Jan 2007 - Too much time in the air! 16 Jan 2007 - Arrive in Auckland, head north to view sights of northern island (Bay of Islands, Cape Reinga) 17 Jan 2007 - Waitomo caves (they have caves lit by glowworms), Lake Taupo Take ferry ... read more
