It actually isn't very far ... I might have to give up and go on my own as John isn't interested . ( to be fair he's already been there and now has to avoid the sun having had a few melanoma's removed)
the big trip is just weeks away now - i am so excited! bought new (functional and light) luggage, already having dreams and nightmares about packing, etc. just about time!!!
plus, craziness, i found out a friend of a friend from my hometown LIVES there! we'll be right close to her, so we plan to meet up at least for a beer and to share homesick-for-NM-whilst-in-paradise stories. it really IS a small world!
Ive Been in Armenia at a CIBJO conference.
Its been fun.
But its hard when I'm missing the harvest.
Lee - sent me some pics of the first day of reseed harvest. These are 13 mm ++. We have another 5 - 6 days to get more to help this strand.
I realise there is a fine line between pleasure and pain. I think pearl people feel a twinge of pain when they see something like this.
Enjoy.
Looking forward to hosting Julie Beth.
And please know that we love visitors.
We love showing off our island home and he incredible people we work with.

Justin, those are spectacular!!! I cannot stop looking at those colors...the golds, greens, blues, plums... truly amazing! I have another Fiji pearl project in the works which I hope to receive next week. But I see now that it will not be the last! Thanks for posting!
