hello again!
well of course since our last post we have been to quite a few more destinations, to name a few we have been to Santorini, Kusadasi in Turkey, Naples and finally Rome. Our boat trip has now finished and we farewelled the Barber family in Rome last night. We will now be travelling alone for a bit which will be different, however in a few days we will be meeting matt and vanita in Dubai!!
as i have limited time as we are at Heathrow airport i will just list some of the highlights of the past week or so:
- Santorini - such a beautiful place however was a little bit scary when we were there as winds were up to 60 mph and the swell was huge. after some major convincing, nay decided that she would catch the tender boat over to Santorini, however the trip back left a little to be desired with waves crashing into the tender boat, the lovely coffee that was had at Santorini was certainly seen again. it was then a little bit choppy for the following 2 days which wasn't great! (no pizza or ice cream was had on those days!)
- Kusadasi, Turkey - again amazing place. we had a tour that day to Ephesus where there are heaps of old buildings and lots of places which are mentioned in the Bible.
- Naples - hmmm not much to mention about Naples, really is just a transit city. as we were there on a sunday, no shops were open so we went to the museum instead.
- Rome - loved it, huge city with lots of history. so hot though!!!!

Hey guys,
Great to see I can now leave a comment :)
It looks like you are having a fantastic time. We are all very jealous! Seems that Nay has the same response to rough weather on boats as Jay famously does - hehehe!
Please say hi to Matt & Vanita for us. You will be in our thoughts & prayers while on your mission in Africa.
Cheers,
Mike (& Christina)
