Our destinations in 2005 were along a wandering route between Hawaii and New Zealand.  We spent some time relaxing and diving in the outer Hawaiian islands before heading south.  As we headed south towards the equator, we went to Fanning Island in the Kiribatis at only 3º52' north of the equator.  This was our last stop before crossing equator.  From Fanning, we crossed the equator and began another wandering route of  South Pacific destinations.

    In 2006, we began our cruising season from New Zealand and our first stop was Fiji.  We moved on to Vanuatu with plans to also visit New Caledonia before heading to Australia for the southern hemisphere's cyclone season.  But we liked Vanuatu so much that we spent the remainder of the season there and bypassed New Cal.  We ended the season in Australia.

    In 2007:  We spent two months sailing up the east coast and across the north coast of Australia.  We sailed from Darwin, Australia to Kupang, Timor, Indonesia with the Darwin to Kupang 2007 Rally.  We spent three months in Indonesia, then we went to Singapore for a few weeks.  After Singapore, we spent a month in sailing in and through Malaysia, then we went to Thailand.  We spent a few months in Thailand, and we have returned to Langkawi, Malaysia where we will probably spend a bit of time.

    But our plans do change.  Stay tuned...
