Well… I’ve arrived! Yeah!! Been a couple of days since I posted. Been a little busy!
On Sunday (Day 27) we went out for a quick beer and wondered around Sanctuary Cove and then went over to see some bats. How many bats? Wow!!! These beasts are huge!
Day 28 was meeting up with my niece Gwen and watched her son give a presentation at his school. Very cool!
Some pics below…
