The Googsley comes to town!

Spot the difference...

Baby Luk Chai - 350kg worth of baby!!

A typical zoo shot!

The ear piercing experience wasn't too bad. The woman did both at once and whilst she came close to tears, she managed to hold them off by jumping up and down a fair bit. Kind of cute really!

The zoo was fun though we got pretty wet. The gorillas were in fine form though in the rain. Discovering things Charlotte reckons she's never seen before, ie. travelators and green cordial!!

Argentina - Part 5

Picnic day.


Martin and Rob (CMS Qld) on the "Vertigo Extremo"! 60 metre drop.

Excited people on the plane to Iguazu Falls.

You can't tell but it was absolutely pouring rain in a big thunderstorm here. Needless to say, we were a bit wet...

Argentina - Part 4

The view from our balcony at Los Cocos (where we celebrated Christmas).


More Los Cocos. It really was very pleasant.


Meeting one of the locals. The man holding the snake is Maurice, one of the regulars at the Anglican church and VERY knowledgable about all the Los Cocos flora and fauna. He used to be the gamekeeper at Iguazu Falls National Park.

Iss Iss and the kids. The girl on my right is Maddie, daughter of Rob and Jenni who are missionaries with CMS Queensland.

As you can see, we take our sport VERY seriously!!
