Report from Down Under

Here is what it is like to go exploring with Brooke and Steve and their family. Everyone is in their seatbelt and we are all on the lookout for Wallabies, Kangaroos and Wombats, well not Tyler - he likes to sleep. I shot this through the fisheye rear view mirror.

I have several poses for this clever young fella. He is enrolled in the Coogee Public School and is on holiday right now. He misses school and wants to go back soon. He has a keen eye and can pick out blue bottles (jellyfish), sting rays and sea snakes before anyone can. He is pretty good with the flying foxes too.

Lily is amazing. She can go from unhappy to to cheerful in about three seconds. It takes about eight to go the other way, but when she is happy, she is a little darling. Lily has been working on her letters and sounds. She will be reading in no time. She worries about the family staying together and doesn't let anyone get separated.

Tyler is pretty sure-footed now. If we slid a surf board under his feet, he could surely handle it. He is quite even tempered right now and lets Lily mother him and carry him around. In all, the family is doing fine experiencing all that Australia has to offer.
