Default Web site

Last year, my wife and I travelled to New Zealand and Australia. I have
finally
completed the construction of a web site containing photographs and
descriptive
comments. It can be found at

I found your account interesting and informative.

However when I clicked on the Captain Cook Cruise link I received a
surprising result. Apparently this link surreptitiously installs spyware
(TopText) on your system. Thought you would like to know.

Interesting!??
All photo links were dead!
You're NOT a very enterprising tourist - you stayed well within the ultra
touristy environs - which is fine - but 'unknowing' visitors to your site
should be aware this is so!!!

No, they're not but unknowing visitors to this site should be aware that the
thumbnails are huge and take an eternity to download.

Can we have some quick spelling corrections?

The airline is QANTAS.

The largest city in New Zealand is AUCKLAND.

The major city north of Townsville is CAIRNS

All of these should have been spelt correctly on your flight itineraries.

Your hotel in Sydney was probably the Sydney HARBOUR Marriott.

Isn't it amazing that even after visiting these places a traveller can
still misspell them? I was particularly struck by the repetitious use of
"Aukland" on his web page.

Yes, they're not really thumbnails. They're actually the full sized
pictures with their width and height set small. So the browser is doing
the resizing and the downloads are huge.

Thanks for your photos. Weka (the bird) is spelt Weka.

Did you actually enjoy your trip? Your commentary is a bit muted.
