Mel and Janet's Excellent Adventure

This blog is a way for Janet and Mel to communicate with friends and family during their incredible journeys following retirement. Of course, some adventures are less than incredible. You might not find those here. Their most recent adventure took them to Okinawa, Japan to see their now 4-year old twin grandchildren, Milana Michelle and Tavis Michael. Feel free to add your comments, questions, or just news. Private communications can be sent to m-muchnik@sbcglobal.net.

From Rangiroa, French Polynesia

Hello all - First, I have changed the settings I hope so that anyone can comment without registration. Hope that makes it easier for all. Just click comment and it should work more easily without any hassle. Just did not realize that setting was there.

Finally found a way to send an image at an internet cafe - the ONLY internet cafe on this 10 km (6.2 miiles) strip of sand on the north side of an atoll. This is our front yard: Yeeks - this won't work. OK - you'll have to wait until we can find a better way to do this. Damn.

Anyway - sorry - images may have to wait a bit. We are fine. Janet coughing less, but scaring the fishes as she coughs her way above them in her snorkeling mask. The best snorkeling turns out to be right out our bungalow and into the water. Today sunny and glorious and the water here is crystal clear. We're ready for one of those Coroner ads. Tomorrow we take a boat across the lagoon to a reef island where there is supposed to be the best snorkeling on this atoll.

We're hear until Wednesday when we fly to Tahiti. New friends from here are picking us up - Bernard, Josiene and their sone Hugo - and taking us home to dinner. Later that night we fly two hours west to Raratonga in the Cook Islands where we stay for a week.

Isn't this a great way to communicate?

Mel

Gee Mel - Thanks for the posting improvement to the blog - whereas before I was "Sally" now I am anonymous because "Sally" was taken ....but I think it was taken by me. I never cared much about my name but it does have sentimental value because my mother gave it to me!! Anonymous (is there a spell checker here??)
