In August, 2006, S/V Toketie set out from Victoria, British Columbia and sailed South to Mexico, on to French Polynesia, Niue and Tonga following the well beaten path known as the 'coconut run' to New Zealand. In 2009 we sailed N to Fiji then on to New Caledonia en route to Australia! Toketie is now back home in British Columbia after a long passage via the N Pacific Ocean.

KL
off to rocky start....the fancy Tilt Train to Brisbane broke down....twice...second time they loaded us on buses to continue....finally made the Gold Coast Airport Hotel (not recommended) 2 1/2 hrs late....but found a great pub across the street and a good Thai curry and cold beer got us back in the mood....Air Asia flight was uneventful...Airbus ok....long bus ride in to city centre....and quickly merged into the hot, sultry crowded atmosphere of Kuala Lumpur....hotel was a bust again but put up with one night then found a great place around the corner...we are in the heart of Chinatown and Little India...big busling husling market at the end of the road.....soaking in the flavors and aromas.....off to find the Batu Caves today.....
