We all have our dreams and most of us never turn them into reality - but this adventurous Kiwi couple did. Neil and Barbara Thomas' vision was to put to sea for an extended voyage across the Pacific Ocean, heading north, from New Zealand to Japan and Alaska.

This is Barbara's story of a three year voyage that took them through the South Pacific to Japan and onto the Aleutian islands in the Bering Sea and Alaska.

It is about life on board their 'tiny ship' Starlight, calling into beautiful exotic ports, and indeed one or two hell holes. But Barbara describes the extraordinary places and wildlife they encountered - from the undisturbed remains of WWII Japanese submarines and zeroes to grizzly bears gorging themselves on salmon.

It is a story of friendships formed and extraordinarily generous locals who helped them along the way.
