Well, you folks can learn about Palau while I learn about doing a travel blog. As the title indicates, I am still in the planning stages of the trip that will kick off about the middle of January. I will be in the Republic of Palau for about six weeks doing the research for a guidebook on Palau, “Papa Mike’s Palau Handbook” will be published in the fall of 2005 and will join my two other books. For those of you unfamiliar with Palau, here is a link to a Website with information on the island nation. http://www.visit-palau.com/

I am off to Palau to write my third guidebook and in so doing spend 1½ months visiting and gathering information for the book. I will be leaving from Santa Barbara, California, where I reside with my significant other. By day I am a ceramic tile contractor, but yearn to retire and continue writing on select island groups. Papa Mike’s Palau Handbook will be my third title, my other two books are Papa Mike’s Cook Island Handbook and The West Indies on $50.00 a Day.
