Talofa! Tokelau has no cities, but the atolls each have at least one kilometer of pathway that one could run. No traffic to avoid, Pacific Ocean views on one side and lagoon on the other. Watch out for chickens and the occasional pig... Visit http://xl.net.nz/pasifika/tokelau.htm to see maps of the islands. Click the Nukunonu map for a typical description. To get to Tokelau, you must arrange sea passage (2 to 3 days) from Apia, Samoa (zakp@lesamoa.net) because Tokelau has no airport. You can have a quick run then leave on the same sailing, or stay a few weeks and get the boat next time.
