Hermanus, Western Cape, South Africa

What a journey it has been and continues to be! This is one large entry but it encompasses and touches on life in South Africa. We live in Hermanus, a coastal town 80 miles outside of Cape Town. We missed the whale season and hope to return and witness this incredible experience. One hundred plus whales fight for space to have their calves right off Hermanus. Between the people, climate, nature, scenery, restaurants and wineries, you can't help but love the lifestlyle here. We're getting spoiled! Thanks for letting us share...
Thanks Lisha for your endless hours of sorting!

Swakopmund, Namibia

Namibia is a land of sand and sea, with a coastline stretching almost 1500 miles from the northern border of South Africa to the southern side of Angola. It is starkly beautiful with the biggests and dunes in the world. We have half a house there with Mukesh so if you want to go somewhere different, just ask and we can accomodate you!

Back to my Brian's old home on the edge of the Kalahari and our good friend's Jagu and Mukesh. What a place!

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Our last stop before heading home to Africa. Wonderfully different and decidedly decadent, with prices to match. Fabulous mountains, seas, food and buildings like nowhere (except maybe Shanghai) else! These days foreigners are leaving their cars at the airport when they flee to avoid debtors prison. The economic meltdown has definately come to Dubai.

Jakarta, Indonesia

Indonesia would have been incomplete without spending a coulple of days in Jakarta. It was delightful to meet some Indonesian cousins who were most gracious. Next time, we'll stay longer and really hang out!

Denpasar, Indonesia

After much anticipation we arrived in beautiful Bali. We stayed for six weeks and got a good taste of eveyday expat life in Asia. Met lots of great people through the Skal Club and ended our stay with four days on the Gili Islands. Lisha's Mom Frieda and Brother Roland visited for three weeks from Hawaii.

kuala lumpur, Malaysia

Fabulously integrated and a rich blend of cultures, religions, and people. The food is exquisite. We experienced an absurd fish pedicure and explored the Petronas Towers!

hangzhou, Zhejiang, China

The most visited place in China for the Chinese. It has everything you need to experience Chinese art and culture, and is scenically spectacular. We had a fabulous fifteen km bike ride through town stopping at the Museum of Tea and then up into the mountains and tea plantations.

Xitang, Zhejiang, China

It was time for a break from the manic Shanghai city life. We set out to explore some outer villages. We especially enjoyed Xitang. Check out the roof tops. For those of you who saw the movie "Mission Impossible III", you'll recognize the setting.

Shanghai, China

Finally we get to enjoy our frequent flyer rewards with two overnight flights. We flew from D.C. to London and then on to Shanghai. Beds are great, bar is fun, and the shave and shower in the London Clubhouse sublime...
