A pictoral overview, with categories to come

Farren and I hung out at the Getty in LA

Blue skies once in Fiji

The beds in our bure (pronounced byur-ay), or private hut, on Kuata island

Sunset on Kuata island

On Naviti, there was entertainment

...and beautiful flowers every single day on our doorstep

Liz had minor surgery on a reef puncture wound.

And here's the aftermath of the cyclone. We waded over the bridge we were supposed to drive over.

Chico and Liz relate via hand gestures.

One small example of the arachnids down under.

The stuff people leave behind is just strange.

Protestor's falls in the rainforest, New South Wales.

More soon as my headache subsides. Today's my first day fasting and I am still jetlagged and I have a HIDEOUS caffeine headache. Yes, I went back to the evil drug whilst away, and now I pay for my actions. Ungh.

So pretty!! Awesome pictures! Thanks for the larger one of the flower. Looks great on my 1600x1200 resolution. :)

Glad to have you back even if you are still a thousand miles away. :.

Looks like fun! Welcome back!
I feel you on the caffeine headache. I had a coffee habit for a while last month, and endured the headaches the week before the Fast, so that I wouldn't jones for food and caffeine at the same time. Maybe chocolate at night will help you.

I think I would settle for 15 hours of sleep and a couple of tylenol :)

Yes, that was a big spider to us, but small in comparison to the one that was in our bure our first night in Fiji. Holy crunk it was HUGE! So big, in fact, I could not fathom what it would be like to kill it. So it was shooed away by a brave co-vacationer. But that was just the spider...you should have seen the uh...other bugs...eek...

everything looks so exaggerated in the tropics - bugs, flowers, they're all big!

oh, and good luck with the fast. you know i understand. :)

Thank goodness fasting started after you got back. Otherwise you might have been tempted to snack on one of those spiders. Goodness! That's one huge fuzzy icky creepy thing. And it was small?

Great photos. To bad you don't have a slide projector so we could all come over, eat popcorn, and watch a Lacey travelogue.

Actually, Liz and I are going to put together a slide presentation a la powerpoint and present it to our coworkers at "lunch" one day soon. Perhaps I'll save it for a party sometime! :)

aww man, I wanna come to lunch and see your powerpoint fun...

I once had a spider similar to the one in your pic (but hairier) climbing up my loungeroom wall. I sucked it up with the vaccuum cleaner. I really dislike the big, hairy spiders that we get here!
