from New Zealand and Bangkok.  We bought a lovely little APS camera in New Zealand (after losing our old one at an amusement park), so we've got panoramic pictures even.  We kinda went a bit overboard, so it may take a while to download, and you'll need the full screen to see everything, so you might want to close any favorites menu or anything that shares the screen with web sites or the captions won't line up with the photos.  Also, we learned from my art web site that Fortune City sometimes has problems loading in images.  If it stalls or says it's done when it's obviously not, either hit refresh or the back and forward buttons and it should work eventually.  It's a free software and web host, and it sometimes shows.  Hopefully it won't for you.</div> <bR> <div> If you click the links at the left, you will be taken to a specific page with large photos about whichever topic you choose.  If you click the links above or below (or the corresponding headers at the left) you will be taken to a page with little photos about all of the topics in that section.  It basically worked out that the places we went by ourselves are in the New Zealand 1 header, while New Zealand 2 has places we went with others.  Bangkok is all in one heading.  We went to Bangkok on the ways to and from New Zealand, but because of the lost camera the photos here are all from the way back home.</div> <bR> <div> Kenneth provided the captions for the pictures, and the paragraphs are courtesy of Linda.  The writing is the same whether you choose to look at the big or small picture version, and you can click on any small photo to be taken to the larger version.</div> <bR> <div> In case you don't know, here's the lowdown on who the people in the pictures are:  </div> <bR> <div> Heather is Kenneth's mum, and she lives near us in Scotland, but she happened to be in NZ at the same time as us.  Andy is Kenneth's brother - one year older.  Kathryn is Andy's wife.  They met in a bar on St. Patrick's Day after Andy moved to Auckland in search of work.  Their children are Katie (9), Aidan (6), and Kieran (3).  They all live in Howick, which is basically like a suburb of Auckland.  Kath is Kathryn's mum.  She is from Ireland and has lived in NZ for many years.  She lives in Manurewa, which is between Howick and Auckland.  Hannah is Katie's best friend from school and around the corner.  Mandy is Hannah's mum.  </div> <bR> <div> Carolyn has been my pen pal since 1988.  Michael is her husband (as of March, therefore the wedding photos).  They live in Ellerslie, another suburb of Auckland.  Linda and John are Caro's parents.  They live in Howick just around the corner from Andy and Kathryn (a peculiar coincidence).  Tiffany, Leanne, Maia, and Nicola are Carolyn's friends.  Maia is Caro's cousin, Nicola is Carolyn's friend from work, and Tiffany, Leanne, and even Michael are Caro's old friends from school.  Maia, Leanne, and Tiffany were the bridesmaids at the wedding.</div> <bR> <div> Martin is actually Kenneth's cousin, but they didn't know that until they were friends for a long time at school in Elgin.  Usa is Martin's fiancee.  They work together at Harrow International school in Bangkok.  They met at work where they teach English to wealthy Thai children.</div> <bR> <div> That should be all the prep work done.  All that's left is to enjoy, so you'd better.</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id18.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="New Zealand 1"><U>New Zealand 1</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id45.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="New Zealand 2"><U>New
