Well, that’s just one of the adventuresome activities that this article at the Age, an Australian newspaper recommends. The list is actually quite impressive given that it was complied for people on are on cruises…something, I have to admit, I am rather loathesome of. But hey, whatever (heh heh) floats your boat.

Then, she recommends circling Bora Bora by power-ski. Damn, I wish I’d thought of that. Also, she says you should check out the land divers of Vanuatu, about whom we’ve written on a few occasions. Definitely adventuresome stuff, definitely for the well-heeled. But it beats the lamer type of recommendations you usually get from these types of articles like “try to meet some of the natives” or “buy some local gew gaws for your living room wall” and so on.
