This video tries to capture the chaos that is India.

Caroline conceived, shot and edited this video offering her unique take on our overnight train trip from Hong Kong to Beijing.

On our last night in Bali we had dinner on the beach in the town of Jimbaran – and were treated to a sunset seranede. Seems like Kid Rock’s not the only one channeling Lynryd Skynrd these days.

This is one of those weird, out-of-context musical moments, and surely the last thing I expected to hear on the beach in Bali.

And when the song was done, we enjoyed dinner on the beach and one of the sunsets for which Bali is rightfully famous.

Be sure to check out the Beach Band’s encore performance of “Let It Be.”

If you were old enough to listen to the radio in the 1980s, you’ll remember the distinctive reggae-influenced opening of Men at Work’s only U.S. #1 hit “Down Under.”

Australia may be the only country where the song remains in regular rotation on top-rated radio stations.  (Believe it or not, Men at Work played the song to close the 2000 Sydney Summer Olympics.)

Now, if I can just find my Little River Band album…
