Not sure what is wrong with my blog but its not accepting any photo or narrative updates today! So resorting to this medium as had a few nice direct e-mails asking if I was still ok.
Did the 3/4 day boat trip and it was excellent....got down to Punto Arenas at bottom of Chile....then 4 hour bus a total of 22 hours on 3 flights and here I am....Christchurch, South Island, New Zealand! Got to go as there is a 22 year old nurse (female!) who has invited me out to dinner and to show me the town?
All the best

Hi Jay......yes birds, 1000s of them....think they were cooling off in the spray-mist from the falls, as it was really hot. have loaded a load more vids today..waiting for them to post as founf an internet cafe with a decent bit of upload speed......keeping the blog organised is a full time job....I need to hire a secretary!
Jay
it was birds! I just saw the video, loved the way you got them to fly right through the centre of your frame right on cue..... (jammy git! )

Smiffie - ace photos mate, glad you finally got off your lazy ass to post them on here
trouble is I've now got a crick in me neck where I was trying to see the portrait pictures, that were left horizontal!
Loved the waterfall pics, and was there a flock of birds flying through the spray? Looked amazing.
Glad to see Topper got the game with you, but did I see some of those clackers in one picture?
That samba dancing placed looked fantastic, and I like the way you captured the movements of the dancer - it made the shot very dramatic.
Keep the photo's coming you slacker!

hi all,
trying my mobile on free wi-fi internet connection in café in BA. If this works it will be so good! Another footie match yesterday. Racing V Indepente....crowd were hllarious....
Plymouth not going for playoffs anymore...we are going to be promoted as champions! great result for toffees...7-1 ....europe beckons again next year. Also made up for holloway..bitter he has left plymouth but he was a great manager.

Holloway's Leicester won 2-0 away, not a bad start for him!
oh yeah Plymouth won away as well, now they are 4th in the League....
...and Everton won 7-1!!!!!!
Jay
Smiffie,
glad to see you're taking in a footie match while you're out there... although I can't believe you didn't watch "meh-hi-ho"
Looking forward to the pictures of the fit birds with their tops off though....
Smiffie
Hi All,
Firstly, I hope Leicseter, get relugated and like all Plymouth ex managers, Holloway ends up worse than he was with with Plymouth.
We are 7th and we will show him what a team we have without him.
Also if youre ever going to come to S America, Argentina is the place it is so cheap!
On the positive side, I was in San Paulo last nigth and got a ticket to watch Brazil V Uruguay. It was amazing, Fireworks, flags and fit birds taking their tops off. And that was before the game even started!
