    Mate, next time you say "we're going on a resort vacation", I'm booking the same trip, immediately.

    Unbelievable. Truly.

    :jawdrop I'm seriously impressed Mate! reminds me of some of my own exploits while serving in the US Navy in the South Pacific... I miss it sometimes... You said in the beginning that you didn't like resorts but your family did, was the trip to Tanna the compromise? rolleyes1.gif Spend a few days at a resort and a few days in a hut on the side of a volcano? What a great vacation!

    Nice shots too! I love the ones of the Natives jumping out of the jungle to shock and surprise! did you get more than one of the valcano?

    Cheers

    Thanks for stopping in javier. Just make sure you get there to witness it one day. You honestly wont regret it. Just dont drink the village kava deal.gif

    I showed the pictures to my wife who was similarly amazed. I'd have to do a resort with her, though, she gets skittish around the mosquitos.

    Reading this demonstrates the difference between a traveler and a tourist.

    It just gets better and better. Thanks Gus!

    Wow Gus... That is hardcore... thumb.gif

    I totally enjoyed the narrative and the photography. Sounds like an unforgettable trip. When I need a reference for an adventurous trip, I will be sure to return here to re-read this photo journal...

    Thanks for sharing...
