The cruise to Mexico had some good food but what made it so great was our special family and friends!
No one tells a joke like this guy..wonderful people and good foodies too!
The whole bunch...pretty chilly on deck at night! But we loved spending time with family and friends!
A beautiful spot in Mexico.

Yes, we are going back to Africa...thanks to Great Adventure People GAP! www.gadventures.com/ We have booked our tour and will be travelling through three countries (Uganda, Kenya, Tanznia) and doing some fantastic stuff. We will be trying out a new trip journal and logging the trip as well and will keep everyone up-to-date.

Gorillas at Christmas 2011
Yes, we have booked our Gorillas adventure with GAP for December 2011. We are so excited that we will be with the gorillas for Christmas. We do need to 'get in shape' for the trek through the mountains and the altitude so it is a good thing that it is more than a few months down the road. More as the plan unfolds.
WOW! what an exceptional experience... The hike almost killed me but (was it worth it?)...at the time I said I would never do it again... After we arrived back at the ranger station after a 7/12 hour 'hike' up and down steep mountains I took off my (new) hiking boots and gave them to my guide/porter and went back to camp barefoot...But, now I say yes it was worth the pain ... and I will never do it again!
Here are some pictures we took of the family of gorillas we visited in Nkoringo (round) hill.
