Um, maybe not.
Nevermind backpacking and bumpy buses, this lot do helicopters for their transport du jour, and there's only room for three (plus a few bodyguards, pilots - y'know, the usual).<\/p>","url":"2009/2/2/Tom-Cruise-and-Katie-Holmes-0109-12.jpg","width":385,"height":540,"alt":"Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes "},{"captionHeading":"TomKat's Family Holiday","caption":"

It looks a little more walking-boot terrain than flip-flops to us.<\/p>","url":"2009/2/2/Tom-Cruise-and-Katie-Holmes-0109-23.jpg","width":385,"height":540,"alt":"Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes "},{"captionHeading":"TomKat's Family Holiday","caption":"

It's so sweet the way they're always prepared to crouch down and chat to Suri on her level.
In fact, we almost wish they were our parents... free ticket to Brazil, anyone?<\/p>","url":"2009/2/2/Tom-Cruise-and-Katie-Holmes-0109-5.jpg","width":385,"height":420,"alt":"Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes "}];
