Andy & Liz are exploring the world on their way to Australia. We flew to Rio De Janeiro on 2 October, followed 5 days later by a trip to Lima in Peru before we head off to explore the Inca Trail and Maccu Piccho and the Amazon. We then head to Washington DC before stopping in LA on our way to Fiji for a chill out week. Next we head to the Gilbert Islands (Tarawa, Kiribati) where Liz lived when she was between 6 and 9.

hi from new media
Looks amazing guys! Very jealous indeed seeing those photos A few more of Andy in his 'mankini' would be good though? ;0 cold and wet here although the flooding seems to have gone now :) fin is growing fast - nearly 4 months old now. I'm taking him swimming now although he tends to scream his head off currently... take care x mart

Andy and Liz's blog and photos of Bairiki
We were there in 1962 when the Rurubao School was established by Margaret B. Loved your blog and the photos which brought back many memories. Many thanks.
