Thing Gillian never told us

As I write this, I have the overwhelming urge to take an island hopping trip across the South Pacific. Have you ever dreamed about that? Well one of these days, that dream will become a reality. I have every intention of abandoning everything for a year or so and taking in the scenery down there. Just have a look at these photos of such places as New Caledonia, Tahiti and Somoa.

Samoa,

The men are tatooed from the top of the knee to the bottom of the navel and the Hammerhead shark population capitol of the world is in Pango harbor.

Samoans sing like birds and seldom need glasses

There are more people imarching n the Flag Day parade than watching it

In Samoa, I sat at King Fai Vai's right at dinner. His daughter sat opposite me with a fan to keep flys off my turkey.

And don't forget: To petition another for a favor or kindness, tuck a $1 bill under the pull tab of a Coke (and I'm not kidding here)

Is that where the phrase "share a Coke and a smile" came from?
