Then There Were Twelve

Update: Parks Victoria has confirmed that the crumbled was not of The Twelve Apostles but of the Three Sisters. Whew...but then limestone formations won't last forever!

The news today brought me back to my previous post of The Twelve Apostles almost 2 years ago during the 50th Anniversary of The Great Ocean Road. Another limestone formation crumbled into the sea.

Perhaps it's another good excuse to have a drive down GOR once again but this is in my new ride. *wink*

Pics of My Golf GTI Pirelli

I have been putting this off for some time now and there have been a few requests...So, here they are:
It's been raining/drizzling every now and then for the past few weeks which can be frustrating since it could be just a day after I washed my ride! Oh well, Melbourne needs the rain anyway. So, it's for the greater good ;)

I did have a few shots of other VW Golfs too. The last of the Golf R32 AWD with 3.2L V6 naturally aspirated (NA) engine after the announcement of the 6th generation AWD Golf R with the 2.0L Turbo which is lighter but more powerful.
I think the only colour missing is the Sunflower Yellow of which only available on the GTI Pirelli variant.

Of course, I'll post some wedding shots in my next post. I have since covered 4 weddings over winter and early spring - two in June, one in July and one last week.

Cheerios...

An Awesome Experience with The Grand Illusionist

I attended the performance by the great David Copperfield about 3 weeks back, 15th August 2009. I've always been fascinated by what he has done in the past. When it was mentioned by a friend that David will be touring Australia, I decided that I would not want to miss this opportunity to see him perform live.

Oh yeah, Webster the duck made some appearances too....! He walked through concrete steel, reminiscence of the same feat through The Great Wall, "puppetted" a maroon-coloured tie of an audience, wound himself shorter, made a piece of "magic" paper levitates/skips then turned it into a rose for a lady, made a group of audience disappeared on stage and reappeared at least 30m away in the crowd and had audiences gave random some numbers similar to his grandpa's 2 license plates.

It was truly an experience forever etched in me. His feats, though may be illusions, are certainly a form of inspirations and motivations.

Oh yeah, David Copperfield has put on plenty of weight and no longer his skinny self in the 80s and 90s! I thought he was a double!

Another tick off from my bucket list.....!
