Hi,

Am enjoying some chill-out time in Melbourne with my brother Donald. It is a beautiful city with a good mix of old and new buildings and plenty of eateries. We have sampled the Greek and Italian quarters so far. My brother has left to go back to NZ today and I have another two days before heading for Chile.

I did promise some photos of the trip so far. Having had problems trying to mail them I have instead set up a web site which contains a selection. Due to my minimalist technical knowledge on these matters, I was not able to select all the photos I would ideally like you to see but this does provide a sample of the trip so far. Some sections are missing due to data access problems , but the end result is not a bad reflection on most parts of the trip in Asia.

Hope you have time to enjoy some of them. There is a 'previous/next function on the right hand side of the screen once you have clicked on the first photo, which is the best way to view them. The site is:

Hope you enjoy. Thanks for all your recent messages.

Will write again from South America, all being well.

Yours aye

Murdo
