Hung out for a weekend in May of 94'. If I had known the waterfowling was that good I would have had fewer pints and found a good ol boy and busted a few ducks.

As it was I watched Rugby and enjoyed that too.
Roos won it think.

I'm a fan of the Bok's and anyone playing the Lions.

Great pics.

I cringed at seeing that SxS leaning against the old tin.

What are those blue colored birds?
I love the peacock. Used to work for a man whose wife had a flock of them. I'd love to have taken one or all of those annoying buggers.

Looks like ya'll are having plenty of fun.

The blue birds are Purple Swamphens, or Pukeko in the maori. yeah I googled it but so what

looks like they're related to the rails and coots of north america.
