| A three week guided tour of China resulted in a lot of pictures and a cultural shock for our group of twenty. The stark differences between the old and new, the cuisine of China and some of the wonderful side trips made this an unusual experience. The smog and pollution in China needs attention, but the friendliness of the people and their interest in us westerners was terrific. Join us in an excursion of a life time.

| Kauai,
"The Garden Island" of Hawaii, is where we spent a week with our family.
The beaches, scenery and variety of things to do and see are fantastic.
One day three of our group took a hike up the Wailua Canyon, to reach
the base of the highest peaks on the island. It was an adventure we like
to share.

| This sailing trip in Thailand was fabulous. We had chartered a 36 foot sailboat in Phuket and spent ten days exploring Phang Nga Bay and the Andaman Sea. Although this took place a few years ago, it is one of those trips I will never forget. Too bad Sharon was not there to enjoy the excitement. | |
| Our first cruise on a Windstar ship was in the Tahitian islands. We found this to be a marvelous way to see the highlights of Tahiti. The food was great, the shore excursions interesting, and it was a nice way to travel with a group of friends. | |

We spent five weeks touring Australia and New Zealand. There is a long video with all the details, but here we present a few photographs of that trip. In addition, there is our 25th wedding anniversary to Fiji. This included a four day cruise on the Blue Lagoon. | |
