After six weeks in the eastern hemisphere, we're back in the good ole' US of A (visiting our good friends the Dethrows - pronounced "Death Row" - in LA, or "OC" to be specific). We had an absolute blast in the Cook Islands, especially our four day visit in the lovely Aitutaki - by far the most beautiful place on this earth we have ever seen. As the pictures will do more justice than our commentary, we'll let them speak for themselves, so enjoy...and yes, the water is really as beautiful as the photos!

Oh, and before we sign off, it's only proper to show the step by step action photos of the historic removal of the beard (the longest it's ever been):
(the before...)
(the mid-stream...)
(the 70s man, or Ron Burgundy, shot...)
(...and finally, one more for good measure)
