I was thinking about Tahiti recently. I've an interest in the 1700s history of British sail and their visits to Tahiti. Heard Papeete hasn't been too good for a while though, most people go to Bora Bora and Moorea.

My mother is from Norfolk Island. I have half my family is descended from Royal Navy Limeys from the square rigger days and Tahitian and Maori girls.







Mum and Me in Tahiti in 1973.

So you're part descended from the Pitcairners/Bounty mutineers, then.

Countries I visited:

1. France - Paris (the wealth of historic buildings, monuments, and art museums)

2. New Zealand (South Island is the most scenic)

3. Australia (Snowy River Mountains country, Ayers Rock, Ferry Penguin Island near Melbourne were the highlights of the trip)

4. Ireland

I'm from the US and not very well traveled, just Germany, Austria and Switzerland. And Colorado. I throw Colorado in there because 1- it took longer to get to Colorado than Hamburg (24 hours vs 11 hours) and 2- there was as much of a cultural difference between home and Colorado as there was between home and Hamburg. I did see the iron curtain (from a distance).
