Chill Out - A Tropical Island Paradise Beckons

Introduction by William L. Gills aka Bos'n Bill

It's January and if you long for longer, sunny, warm days this time of year a tropical paradise is never too far away; a place where life slows down, lush verdant tropical foliage abound from the mountains down to the soft coral sand and calm, teal tropical sea.

Imagine yourself in another time and place where cares drift down peaceful waterways and soft breezes waft through your hair bringing a refreshing calmness and renewed spirit.

If this is where you want to be even if it's virtual and transient, you've come to the right place. Grab your favorite beverage and chill out in Tahiti for eight minutes. If that's not enough, take a trip to Papua New Guinea. We went there last year, remember? Trip to Eden - a Tropical Paradise.  The tropics beckon.

Trip to Eden - A Tropical Paradise

Introduction by William L. Gills aka Bos'n Bill


I think most everyone longs for an Eden particularly when life goes awry.  Hey, an Eden is even good when things are going well.  Turns out there is a paradise in Papua, New Guinea that presents itself in a form most boaters or anyone with an inclination towards water can appreciate.  It's a place that has everything you would expect an Eden should have: brilliant deep tropical colors, clear, clean water, white sand, bubbling cascades, peaceful lagoons and native hand crafted boats.   It's a place where peace and harmony with nature is celebrated, where the sea meets the land and the land greets the sea.

Michael Fletcher, professional Australian photographer and filmmaker, takes us on an eight minute journey that highlights the beauty of this spectacular land.  The music by Hans Zimmer is from the movie, "The Thin Red Line".  Be sure to double click on the video for wide screen presentation.
