| Twelve Apostles, Australia |
In about 4 days, I will be flying to Australia. I will spend four weeks visiting the famous landmarks of the Land Down Under. I have been checking the weather forecast in Oz everyday since the news of country-wide bush fires broke. Somehow I know the temperature is going to be just right during my stay. I could not wait to see the Twelve Apostles, Uluru, Great Barrier Reef and Wave Rock. A week in Fiji then follows. I am not a big drinker; however, a Kava session is going to be a highlight in Fiji. Tonga is my third destination. I am in for some amazing choir singing there. Maybe I would even get to see the Tongan Royals at a Sunday service. I wanted to go by sea from Tonga to Samoa but there are no regular ferries between countries in the South Pacific. So I become an incidental tourist in New Zealand. I am not into extreme sports so I will be spending a lot of time with nature and sheep, breathing the pure air and riding on a train or bus. My 18-day stay in NZ might just be long enough for me to visit both islands. My new life will start in the Cook Islands on April 1st, 2013. (To be continued)
