Synopsis

From the deep green jungles of the Federated States of Micronesia to the blazing rainbow from inside the Northern Lights.....from the swaying back of an elephant in Malaysia to the swaying back of a camel approaching the pyramids. From the depths of the Mt. Blanc tunnel to the heights of the Jura Mountains...from the writhing traffic and sounds of Lahore to the mosques of Saudi Arabia. We have listened to the sound of the hyenas circling the compound in Ethiopia...and have been aboard the MICRO GLORY as it made its way over the Pacific to the far away islands of Nukuoro and Kapingamarangi, and across the world watched the sun rise on the morning of our 25th anniversary on the island of DUGI OTOK. This is an eye witness daily journal of mind-stretching travel by a middle-aged couple as teachers, photographers and videographers. Video tape and DVD copies are available for many of the journeys.
