Stand-by for Future Developments

I found out why we haven’t been able to blog recently. I waited until we were two days out of Lima to update and couldn’t post.  According to the Microsoft “Techspert” on board the reception is too weak in the South Pacific to send photos and such. We only have text capability.  So I writing an update to let you know we are alive and well.

Since our last post we’ve been through Ecuador, Peru, and Chile.  Our visits to Machu Picchu and Easter Island were a great success.  We can take those off our list.  We’ll send a review and pictures when we can. 

Right now we sailing five days at sea enroute to Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia.  We have a quick stop at Pitcairn Island to visit with the descendants of the mutiny on the Bounty crew on January 23rd.   They come aboard rather than we going ashore. 

We should be able to post a full blog when we get closer to Tahiti.  I’m going to try two small pictures on this one.

  2. Got just fine!! Pictures are great,know you guys are having a great time. At home tanker exploded on top of 528 overpass over SR3. Jan heard and felt the explosion she was only about 1 block from it. 3 are known dead at this time. All traffic blocked at SR 3 and 528 overpass. To get to your house you take 520 to US1 to I-95 to 405 and then SR3. Be glad you are not home!! Smoke everywhere!! www.cfnews.com has pics. Judy

  4. Wow, great pictures. I was beginning to think that you had missed the boat after your Manchu Picchu trip. Glad to see that you are safe and sound. Really can't wait to hear first hand about these two stops. Amazing sights.
    Look forward to your next post.
