Photo Journal from the Journey: July 2006

But my absolute favorite was lounging around on the upper deck and watching the stars then slowly fading off to sleep.

More sunset shots!

Or in the alternative you can sit in the sun and read... read... read and read some more.

Stuffing ones face is also equally acceptable when lazying around on a houseboat.

Intense concentration during the game!

The never ending games of monopoly - I think one of them went on for about 9 hours with all sides engrossed in the mergers, take-oves and imminent bankrupcies

Ain't he cute?

Take a look at those eyes and eye brows.
