PHOTO-A-DAY DAY 67 - 9th March 2014 .... 10am today - where was I?

This is where I was today at 10am today (well with a little bit of poetic license as we were 
actually still on the coach). 
We went to the Hawksberry Racecourse at Clarendon to the Plant Collectors Fair 
with the Shellharbour Garden Club.
Here we are eating lunch in the stables .... with the flies!
We were pretty lucky with the weather tho' and managed to dodge most of the showers.
It was a lovely day out and we came home with a few 'special plants'.

PHOTO-A-DAY DAY 66 - 8th March 2014 .... In the corner

We found this fountain in the huge Moana shopping centre in Hawaii.
These koi were all bunched 'in the corner' of the pond.
Maybe they were looking for food from the kids sitting there?
Here they are - closer up!

Implode....
Here's the 'Stack' imploding and going down at Port Kembla.
Not my photo - thanks to FB.
A bit of Illawarra history gone forever except for the many images taken of it 
especially in the last few months.

This is one of the many images I took of the stack one night when they 
projected a light show up onto it.
