Images from around the World.

Last Update:  February 2, 2001.

The following eight shots were all taken during a quick 3 month trip around the world in 1992. The main focus of the trip was to sail with a large fleet of tall ships from San Juan Puerto Rico to Bermuda, New York and on to Boston through Cape Cod Canal. The event was to commemorate the quincentenary of the Columbus discoveries of the Americas and some shots taken of this event can be found on the University of Wollongong CCS site (access at the bottom of this page).
