Enjoy!

Freeze!
Friday, May 22nd, 2009

This is such a clever piece of art and the looks on the faces of those who don’t know what is going on is absolutely priceless!!

I love how, when it is over everyone just keeps going as if nothing happened!

To Your Success

The Chosen One
Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

For a bit of mindless humour I thought you might enjoy the following video of “The Chosen One”.  Three minutes of your life used up for a bit of fun that should give you a smile.

Take Me To Paradise
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Ann and I have just got back from an incredibly relaxing week on Paradise Bay in the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland, Australia. We had a great time with friends - sailing during the day, great food and wine, and sitting around a campfire in the evenings.

It was doubly interesting because we had no phone or internet for the week…that was hard for me as I’m certainly used to “checking in” regularly. But after a couple of days it was great. We relaxed, read books, talked with friends, played board games and really wound down. It made me realise that its just something that we don’t do enough of in our current fast paced society. It gave some great time for thinking…and some great time for not thinking.

…and at the end of it all, the world was still there. No real disasters had happened. Life went on.

We’ll be back at Paradise Bay sometime soon again for just that reason.

A Great Show
Friday, June 27th, 2008

Hi,

We thought you might enjoy a scene from our recent trip to Las Vegas in the USA. Las Vegas is amazing! Everyone is there for a good time and to be entertained. It really is more than just gambling and the sights are amazing.

On our first night there we were with a group of friends in a private dining area at the Bellagio. Whilst there we recorded the water fountain show with “Paris” as the backdrop. The water fountains are synchronised to music and its truly special.

Enjoy!!

Until next time

Cruising The Strip!
Friday, June 20th, 2008

Hi All,

Okay, so this is plain silliness, but what a load of fun!! On our recent trip to Las Vegas we got to experience all sorts of things and loads of decadence. We didn’t have the children so its fair to say that we let our hair down and let ourselves go.

For the week that we were there, the group that we were with, had the pleasure of using “Tiny” as our prime means of transportation. “Tiny” is a stretch SUV that 30 of us crammed into. We pumped the music up, and let the lights flash. I have to confess to getting a fair bit of pleasure from watching lots of jaws agape as people looked at us as we went past.

So this is pleasure at a very basic level, but I loved it!!

Until next time
Chris & Ann

Africa Hot Air Balloon!!
Sunday, October 28th, 2007

Hello all,

Our trip to Africa was one of those out of world experiences. It was hyped up to us before we left but still exceeded all of our expectations. Words really cannot explain and you absolutely must put it on your list of things to do! It was hard for us because we left the kids behind (in good hands of course!). We thought you’d enjoy a snapshot of one of the great experiences we had - a hot air balloon ride over the Masai Mara in Kenya. It started before dawn and we took off as the sun rose. We then hovered about 100 feet above the plains with the animals beneath us. We were in the air for about an hour before landing and having a fantastic cooked breakfast. The whole thing was breathtaking and we thought you’d enjoy a snapshot!!

Until next time.
Ann & Chris
