A small world made smaller by the internet and the fickled finger of fate.

We came home from GR early this year to go to a friend's wedding. A few days after the wedding I got an email from a guy (Auzie Mike) that I hadn't heard from since the early '70s. He was in Fiji and needed crew to help get his boat to Auz. The plan was to take a couple months crawling through the Fiji, Vanuatu, and New Calidonia island groups on our way. It took Lou about 10 minutes to convince me that it was a good idea and a couple days later I was on a plane with a few spare parts and a pair of shorts. We were headed for Bundagerg, Ql. and guess what, Fraiser Island was our landfall some 78 wonderfull days later.

Here are some pictures with of course a bit of coment.
