Our boys met the Wallaby Rugby Union Team just before their 24 - 28 loss to the New Zealand All Blacks last night at Suncorp Stadium. It's a rough game, just look at Riley and the missing tooth.
I thought I would post some Family and Friends photos from our recent trip to Maine so you don't get a steady diet of Maine Wildlife Photos. I will also be posting in the near future some Australian photos to balance out the Maine photos which I have recently taken. Western Australia has been beckoning for some time now as we have friends there which we haven't seen for some 20 years. This trip should take place in the next couple of months so get ready for Monkey Mia. Since our return to Australia we have been renovating more of our home here in Sydney, I have been solving some teething problems with my new internet business which is becoming really exciting, real estate is in full bloom which all leads to no dull moments. I wouldn't have it any other way. Since returning from Maine I now know why I love Australia. Yes, more Family and Maine Wildlife photos are also on the way. Dean, Doreen and Steven we unfortunately didn't get photos of you guys because of our early return to Sydney and Dianne and I appreciated your sincere and courteous invitations. We will catch up in the near future and as discussed, Steven, you are always welcome in Sydney. Are you ready for the best looking girls the world has to offer?

See no Evil, Hear no Evil, Blog no Evil.
I managed to take 1400 photos of Maine wildlife, landscapes and family while Dianne and I endured the coolness of Central Maine and Northern Maine. It rained for much of our trip but our spirits were kept dry by seeing Mom get stronger as each day passed after she went through a major operation while we were there. I will post more photos as the weeks pass and keep you informed more of our trip and of our Australian happenings. A bloggers dream - co-operative wildlife!
I didn't take alot of photos on the actual day but because we stayed a week in Queensland I managed to do some photography experimenting. Some of the results are displayed below. It was a great day with 50 of Belinda's family and friends gathered at "The Dome" for the birthday girl. There were two other parties going on in there at the same time but in separate rooms. The one behind the horse was where our party was located. Dianne took the picture before the guests arrived. There was plenty of action on and off the track and the pony pictured was one that I bet on, a Winner if I've ever seen one. Children were allowed at the venue but Flynn was a little young so he had a babysitter for the day. We have other photos that were taken by Bim's friends which came out great and will post them over time. We are off to the USA in a week so this blog will quiet down for a couple of months. Will see you all soon....Bob

Warning - What you do on my Maine Trip - I will blog about tomorrow!
To surf the web is human - To blog is divine!
A lazy Autumn day had Dianne and I exploring the lovely little beach suburb of Dee Why which is located close to our home in Sydney. At each end of the beach there are walking trails which follow the Pacific Ocean and opens up to some spectacular views. The Dee Why Promenade contains many cafes where you can sit and relax, enjoy the sun and have a flat white or a long black coffee while looking at the beach and surf.
Power Walking and Power Blogging!
I thought Julie and football fans might be interested in viewing "The Haka". When New Zealand plays a Rugby Football Game, they stand just before the kickoff and face their opponents chanting a fierce Maori War Cry and do a traditional Maori War Dance to frighten their rivials before the battle.
My Blog is an educational experience.
