About Today the weather was much better! Even though I still felt ill from the tea and Rina was cross with me, she dragged us out to Mission Bay to see Rangitoto Island - another old volcano!

Along with a great view of Rangitoto, Mission Bay has this awesome lookout called Bastion Point. There's a memorial to some guy called Michael Savage next to it - he was the founder of the Welfare State. You can see all across the harbour to Auckland City!

Nice place to lay around and just soak up the sun, so Spidey and I did just that :)

Eeeks, methinks I forgot to select "none" for sharpening... Sorry guys :

Rina??
The top image is really good, but why not post this one? This is my favourit of the whole series. Unfortunately people in the comments section won't know which image I'm talking about unless they open the image and scroll down.
The two of them in the flowers!! A beautiful shot.
Post it!!

Excellent stuff and a Gorgeous locale!

Hiya Andre! Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. I'm trying to cheat the system somewhat, since I've lost my little donor star, I can only upload one a day so I try to get in as many as I can by adding some to comments. But then, that leaves me with the dilemma of deciding which gets posted as the main Oh well... nevermind.

Thanks so much for taking the time to check out Gene's adventures. It's been a great project to be involved with. Why not get in touch with Doyle and see if Gene could swing by your way? Would be great to see him teamed up with your bear for another foray into the "Dark Side" ;)


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 10/4/2007
Hi Rina,
Actually last month might have been a better time to do these kind of images for me. My wife and I went on a trip around The Great Lakes. ( I posted a few images from the trip.)

I'm also in the same situation as you as far as posting goes. My donor privelages are missing for the time being. I sent them a donation back in August and they haven't processed it yet. Something strange happening there? No one is answering my emails to suggest@usefilm.com. I have no idea if they got my money order or not?

Sorry I didn't get to see your great photos of Gene sooner, Rina. I need to add you to my Friends list. Really great photos, and adventures for Gene. Can't wait to have him visit me.
