Beer box

I was about to trash the beer box from Ed's farewell party when I happened to read the story on the side of it.

I had to share.

Christmas flip flops?

Birds, Birds and more Birds!

Surfers Paradise

We spent last weekend at Surfers Paradise. What we did not realize was that it was Schoolies week. That's the week after high school graduation where all of the 17 and 18 year old head to the beach for a week. 28,000 of them. Plus the legal drinking age here is 18... so lots of beverage consumed. Lots of girlie screaming. Not exactly the quiet weekend that we were hoping for!

We celebrated American Thanksgiving at John and Angela Davis's house last night.

Had a great time. We could have fed another 50 people w/the leftovers! :)

FIJI III

We spent 8 days in Fiji recently. the first 3 nights on Denerau, the last 4 nights at Likuliku Lagoon resort.

This time we had an over-the-water bure. It has plexiglass in the floor and was built right on top of the coral reef. amazing...

I've included pics of the view from our bath tub, the walkway to the bure, a sunset and a few others. I took almost 400 pictures on this trip so some day you might get to be bored by all of them!!!

The beauty of this place continues to amaze and thrill me!
