Fiji

Since we left you, we've had a wonderful time in paradise. Snorkling, swimming, experiencing Fiji life. The weather, the beaches and the people are all fabulous, including the interesting people we met on the cruise. More details when we get home. Are you ready for the slide show! We'll do our best not to show you all 2,000 plus pictures....we'll try to just show you the best ones.....be prepared....get lots of rest so you don't fall asleep on us. Bev and Donna will be the last to return to reality and are really looking forward to sharing some fun with everyone.
Bula Bula and Vinaka for all your interest. Signing off from Fiji (a little piece of heaven). Leaving for the airport in another hour....then 10 1/2 hours to LA, a stopover there and a chance to visit Hollywood and/or Beverly Hill, then back on the plane and 5 hours to Toronto.

As amazing as this last month has been we are really looking forward to seeing everyone back home.

ULURU-Ayers Rock

Up at 4am, poised and ready, as the sun sheds its early morning light on Urulu. Awesome!!!!
Walking around Ayres rock we saw some interesting limestone formations.

Bev..At 36*C.....I'm having a hot flash at Ayers Rock...now I've done it all!
A unique hand made chair. If you can take it away, you can have it. It took 8 men to position it there.
We saw the sun rise and set on 'the rock ' today. GOOD NITE!!

We all head in different directions

While most of the team heads home,
others were on to more of Australia,
Ayers Rock, or Fiji, en route home.

Donna and Bev have landed in the Red Centre...Ayers Rock. It was 36*C as we checked into our Hotel (air conditioned)...and prepared for The Sounds of Silence dinner that night.

Here's to life!! Champagne begins our evening in the outback.

We were serenaded during canapes by a digereedoo player.
Once the sun set, we began dinner... white table cloths, a buffet dinner, all under the bright starry outback sky! I did catch a glimpse of a dingo out of the corner of my eye but I think he got the hint and moved on. A great time was had by all, such a memorable night.

Hitting New Heights

OOPs it came up twice...but perhaps it just underlines the courage it takes to do this Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb...3hrs . Congrats...bragging rights to you!!
Just to top off the trip!

Lori and Sherry

Who knew?!? Here are Lori and Sherry basking in the sun--29*C .....with us ( in spirit) at Caloundra Wasaga Beach! Good on ya' mate!
