Christmas Island, Kiribati
Christmas Island (Kiritimati) in the Line Islands is the world's largest coral atoll in the northern Line Islands and part of the Republic of Kiribati. Based on a 1995 realignment of the International Date Line, Kiribati is now the easternmost country in the world, and was the first country to enter into the year 2000. Two small uninhabited Kiribati islets, Tebua Tarawa and Abanuea, disappeared underwater in 1999. The islet of Tepuka Savilivili no longer has any coconut trees due to salination. The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change predicts that sea levels will rise by about half a meter by 2100 due to global warming and a further rise would be inevitable. It is thus likely that within a century the nation's arable land will become subject to increased soil salination and will be largely submerged. The people of Kiribati mostly live in villages with populations between 50 and 3,000 on the outer islands. Most houses are made of materials obtained from coconut and pandanus trees. Frequent droughts hinder reliable large-scale agriculture, so the islanders have largely turned to the sea for livelihood and subsistence. Most are outrigger sailors and fishers. Copra plantations serve as a second source of employment, however in recent years, large numbers of citizens have moved to the more urban island capital of Tarawa.

To some, this spirit seems to have been gained at the loss of ancient cultural traditions, but in many ways KL marks the continuation rather than the loss of Malaysia's rich past. Like Malacca five hundred years before, KL's commercial centre is a grand meeting place for merchants and travelers from all over the world.

Norfolk Island is a small inhabited island in the Pacific Ocean located between Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia. It is the only non-mainland Australian territory to have achieved self-governance. There are no safe harbour facilities on Norfolk Island, with loading jetties existing at Kingston and Cascade Bay. Emily Bay, protected from by a small coral reef, is the only safe area for recreational swimming. The island was first settled by East Polynesian seafarers probably from New Zealand in the 14th century, mysteriously disappearing after several generations. Their main village site has been excavated at Emily Bay, and they also left behind stone tools, the polynesian rat and banana trees as evidence of their stay. The first European to visit was Captain James Cook in 1774, on his second voyage to the South Pacific on HMS Resolution. The island became the site of perhaps the cruelest of British penal institutions under the iron rule of tyrannical autocratic commandants until disbanded in 1855 when descendants of Tahitians and the HMAV Bounty mutineers resettled from the Pitcairn Islands. Pitcairn had become too small for their growing population and they gradually established their traditional farming and whaling industries on Norfolk.

Prince William Sound with its 3,000 miles of shoreline is surrounded by the Chugach Mountains to the east, west and north. Fifty-mile long Montague Island and several smaller islands form natural breakwaters between the Sound and the Gulf of Alaska. Prince William Sound has calm and sheltered seas. Large waves and swells are not common due to these large surrounding islands and narrow passages that protect the area from the rugged Gulf of Alaska. Deep water renewal occurs during the winter when cold winds from interior Alaska cool the surface waters causing them to sink, while the warmer bottom water rises to the surface bringing rich nutrients which support huge plankton blooms in the spring. View whales, sea otters, bears, seals, and an array of sea birds, just to name a few. Millions of years of glaciation gradually carved away a coastal plateau creating the sound with its many tributary fiords and passageways, islands and rocky shores. Fewer than 10,000 people live in the three towns-Whittier, Valdez, and Cordova- and two native villages-Chenega and Tatitlek situated on the shores of the Sound.

Victoria Settlement, Australia
The ruins of this ill-fated British Military settlement on the remote Cobourg Peninsula will take you back to an era in time often overlooked in Australia's history. Victoria Settlement was going to be another Singapore, the main defence base and trading port in Australia´s north. The settlers had no fresh water supply, so in the dry season their only water was stored in wells, which had to be dug by hand through unyielding ironstone. They were always short of supplies, as many ships coming from the south were turned back by cyclones. Their attempts at subsistence agriculture were unsuccessful, and they lacked knowledge of bush tucker. Join local guides to explore the remains of Victoria Settlement and for avid fishermen this is the place to try your hand at catching the famed fighting fish of the north.
