Sheldon – a little guy on a big adventure

Sheldon’s a toy voyager that we’ve been taking with us on our travels. He has his own travel diary with lots of photos and stories of where he’s been.

When he’s had enough of us, he’ll hop into a padded post bag and fly to some other family in another part of the world, and continue his quest.

You can follow his story here: http://toyvoyagers.com/index.php?a=topic&t=101970

So far he’s travelled over 7,000 km, been on two cruises, explored the North Island of NZ and met lots of people.

Not bad for a small bird, hey?

Skellig Rocks, Kerry

A post card from friends Helen and Fred in Caherdaniel, Ireland. They live not far from the Skellig Rocks which are off the south west coast of Ireland in County Kerry.

We visited this beautiful part of the world in the winter of 2004, and would very much like to return one day.

Thanks for the great card, Helen and Fred!

This is cool!

I’ve installed a program called Orb which lets me access any of my media (videos, photos, songs) from any computer over the net – even using my mobile phone.

It also lets me share that media (such as family videos) with friends and family.

One cool side-effect is that it lets you share the webcam on your computer.

So I thought I’d give it a go.

Let me know what you think.

If it chews up too much bandwidth, I’ll turn it off. But for now lets see how we go!
