A surprise stopover on the way to Fiji. Captain Cook arrived here on Christmas Eve, hence the name. Anyone remember the Bing Crosby song - Christmas Island? Santa sails in with your presents in a canoe??

Great! You were able to finally SEE Christmas Island! (Did anyone there even KNOW the song? I think it was a Danny Kaye recording!) Love ya'!!
Has Mike done his laundry yet?
Laundry? We'll we're cheating...the room we have tonight actually has a washer/dryer..also a fabulous view of Auckland harbor!
A tropical Christmas..we've had them for 18 years and they still feel a bit weird. We actually have a town named Christmas about 25 miles from here.
