Flying over some islands as flight FJ 811 gets ready to land in Fiji.

She is going off to Australia. And we will head out to Fiji.

Nikita is headed to Australia for a semester. She would not let us join her. Apparently, it is not “independent study” if parents come in along with her!!

So, after she takes her flight to Sydney from Los Angeles, we will jump on to a different flight to check out the Polynesian islands. I have been to islands in the Caribbean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. But never been to the Polynesian islands. In fact, I just found out that we are actually going to be in Melanesia first (Fiji) and then Polynesia (Samoa). Will miss Micronesia this time to round out the Oceania region.

Then again, she will be studying a full semester there!
