The Birthday Party

As promised, here are some pictures of people at the actual birthday party on Nikoi. I've tried to find ones where people are smiling and now have access to more pictures with me in.  Thanks to Apple, who seem to have really captured the ex-pat market, we've set up a shared photo stream so we can all see each other's pictures.  As I've got all these to choose from I've put some in from times other than the birthday party where they're good people shots, group photos etc.

Here's a group shot of us having shampers before dinner.
