Photo of the Day
This photo was taken while i was out witnessing with Gavin and Gemma.
We stopped by a little park and walked up the gorge, it was so tropical that i thought for a moment i was in North Queensland.
Taken as a long exposure on a tripod, i was quite happy with the result.
Unearthing Monte Alban
Monte Alban means White Mountain, Why? because the mountain is covered with a small tree (shrub?) that when in bloom with it’s white flower turns the entire mountain side white in its glory. Continue reading
Touring Oaxaca City
This morning I had previously arranged to work Brother Emmanual in the english Oaxaca congregation. The territory is quite large and especially for the english speaking congregation, so that often means alot of traveling time is involved to get from one end of the territory to the other. We had fun witnessing in a nice part of Oaxaca with clean cemento roads and tidier looking homes. We were covering the territory looking for people who were not previously at home and who spoke english. We didn’t find anyone except a man who’s girl friend spoke english (she wasn’t at home), so we left the latest Awake & Watchtower magazines. Continue reading
Meeting Taj Burrows
After a big day yesterday we slept in till 9ish. Ashley wanted a pastry breakfast so we went to Carmen’s Cafecito for breaky, this suits me just fine since they do a killer “tortas de creme de cacahuate” in english it is a peanut butter sandwich with sliced banana on top. Continue reading
Chorro Water Falls
Today we were invited by Brother Filemon and his family to go on a congregation day out to some water falls past a town called San Pedro (Saint Peter) The water falls are called “Chorro” meaning in spanish “to gush out”. We left at 8am because it is quite a long drive to the falls. The road was cemento all the way to San Pedro but from Pedro to Toro Falls was some of the roughest dustiest roads that I’ve yet travelled in Mexico. It took about and hour and a half to get there.

Weekend Away to Ballina
We took a trip away this weekend for a wedding in Murwillumbah, and stayed in South Ballina for two nights. The photo’s are of the beach near the caravan park we stayed in. I’m still getting used to my Nikon D70, but i’m super happy with the results so far. View Photo’s.
Michael & Sasha were married 26th of February 2005. The ceremony was held at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Murwillumbah at 2:00pm. The reception followed at 6:00pm at the Murwillumbah Golf Club. It was a beautiful wedding, Michael & Sasha looked great together and really happy, so the best wishes to them for the many wonderful years ahead.
Sydney City Photos
I was down in sydney on the weekend attending a convention. So i thought it would be a good opportunity to test out my new Nikon D70. The camera is fantastic and i’m thoroughly enjoying the learning curve and the professional results i get when using this camera compared to anything else i’ve used. So if you in the market for a digital SLR camera be sure to check out the Nikon D70. Here are the shots that made the cut, more to come later when i take them!
Cruising the Hastings River
Lastnight was spent cruising the Port Macquarie river, it was a beautiful calm summers evening just perfect for taking sunset pictures of the marina area. View more photos
About 60-70 people gathered onboard the Port Venture for an engagement party. The music was loud and everyone on the dance floor was hyped, for those that couldn’t cope with the noise stayed on the lower deck and talked.
On the return journey back to port ten dolphins surfed the bow of the ship, they truly are a graceful creature. I think they get as much enjoyment from entertaining us as we do watching them play.
