Babo's jacket suits him.





Anyway - the Geysirs in Rotorua are not a patch on the original Geysir in Iceland.

Christchurch, you can rebuild


Ironically, on our travels we arrive in Napier, the day that Christchurch is hit with a massive earthquake.

Napier – a town that had to rebuild itself in the 1930′s after a quake struck the town and wiped it basically out. They chose to rebuild in the style of the time – Art Deco and lovely it is too.

Admitingly some of the new advertising hoardings have taken over some of the features but most of the upper parts remain unscathed.

This is from central Napier.

Uglyworld #997 - Secrets Funnies (Project BIG - Image 59-365) by www.bazpics.com, on Flickr

When we checkeds intos the newers hotel in Marburg tonights I spotteds somethings so cools that I hads to keeps completelies quieter abouts it or Baz would have hads an idea what I was plannings to do laters.

As normals after a long days travelling and workings Baz falleds asleeper not longs after eatings some dinners, so I decideds to have some of what I likes to refers to as "secrets funnies", but you has to promise that you don't tells him anythings about it.

What I had discovereds was that the bedder we has in the rooms can be controllered by this awesomes remotes control, is so much funs, so fars I makes Baz sits up, rolls over and almost managers to makes him folds in two (he almoster wakes up and I hads to stop just befores I makes the finals foldings move).

I really can't stops laughings my smalls bluey grey butt off, is so funnies as Baz doesn't knows what I is makings him do, alls the remote controls needs is a specials "makes Babo some cookies" buttons and it would be perfects.

Okays, I lets you gets on with what you is doings and I makes Baz doing some situps excercising now!

Some cracking pics on here recently....

I would be updating pictures here but Internet service here has a problem I've been trying to upload files for two days and they keep failing - Internet is okay just the file transfers to anything - Flickr, Facebook, my own webserver all fail. The Internet guys have identified the problem and won't be able to fix it till tomorrow when we leave here. Typical.

Anyway - Oliver - If you're heading to Omaha beach - don't do just the American Cemetery - take a short trip inland to the Canadian one. We found it more personal and humbling and it's in a lovely setting. There was a thread on here when I visited recently that I recall I did a quick write up - not much but some.

Woohoo Flickr Uploader App doesn't have the problem that normal file tx does..



Came across this in the rain forest. And no - no selective colouring here. it was that colour. The werewere kōkako (Entoloma hochstetteri).

Came across it during a walk in the rain forest.







March 1st.
He's 72 years old, walks with the aid of a walking stick and the day before he ends his holiday in New Zealand, him and his 69 year old mate decide to tick one off their bucket list.

So at the Bungy up on the mountain - they wander to the end and half expecting them to just topple over gently I'm shocked when he almost takes a run up and dives off the platform.

My hat goes off to you.
