The latest Mazda3

Hey TDL here is the latest review on the new Mazda. I know you were looking at it a while ago. So is anybody going to the Prince concert? Anyone I've spoken to that has been to a Prince concert has rated them as one of the best they have ever been to.

Hawaiian Sunsets

Took lots of sunset shots on various nights and at various locations. Here are a few of them. I had lots of fun taking them.

Actually the first shot isn't in Hawaii. It was taken as we were crossing over the International Date Line. Where we time travelled to yesterday.

3 in a row.

Well who watched the AFL Grand final? Must say, another let down. Why has every Grand Final for as long as I can remember always been a let down? Each time I watch one I feel like i've been watching another game where Richmond just decides not to turn up.

Congrats Lions, Comiz Pies. So who can't stand Aka and his attitude?

Panoramic

I've managed to stitch the panoramic photo I took with the digi. This is a shot (8 shots to be exact) taken from the end of a pier in front of the Outrigger Reef Hotel I stayed in at Waikiki. To your right the nice little mountain is Diamond Head. Can you believe chelle and I took a five & a half hour walk from our hotel and up around that mountain. The views were amazing.

Some facts I learned:
- Captain James Cook discovered Hawaii.
- Hawaii has the Union Jack in its flag.
- Hawaii and New Zealand are historically linked. They derive from the same culture.
- Elvis put up the money to build the Pearl Harbour memorial.

More shots to come.

Aloha, I'm Back

Hi all, I'm back from Hawaii. Wow, what a fantastic holiday. I will most certainly be going back there again. Took plenty of shots and have returned with a wicked tan. I am very drowsy though. The flight back all night wasn't the best (no fricken leg room) and the plane transfer in Sydney was a bit of a nightmare.

Will post more details and LOTS of pix in the following days. Need to get some shut eye now as the screen is a little too bright to handle.

A Snapshot of last week

Well, last week I went to the footy to watch the Tiger's play their last home & away match for the season. Drove to work up lake side drive on Thursday with the roof down, was amazing. Spent some quality time with the pooch.

Hey I just finished watching the Soccer. Australia beat Jamaica 2 goals to 1. Harry K has a mean left foot.

Well Done Vic

Well, this weekend produced two fantastic AFL games for the two Victorian teams. I was glued to the telly. The Dons went balistic near the end of 3rd Qtr and kicked 4 quick ones, sensational. The Pies & Lions produced an all time, tough, low scoring, defensive style game that was amazing. I hope someone at Tigerland was watching and realised 'This is how you play footy!'.

Pix on the way

Hey TDL. I took some mad pix and short movie clips with my digi yesterday morning whilst driving with the roof down past Albert Park lake. What a fantastic day. Will post them up on the weekend.

Now, does anyone know how to get Sygate Firewall to allow other PC's on my home network to share the internet connection? ZoneAlarm did it with no probs. Sygate is busting my chops.

Big Decisions

The AFL finals are here. My team will not be participating. There are only two Victorian teams. Who do I go for? Reasons?

A good weekend

Well it was a good weekend. Managed to go swimming, watch the new Aussie movie 'Take Away' (some funny bits, seen better), go to Bridge Rd to do some thread shopping and make it to the G to see the Tigers play a good game for the last time this season.
