Amy's Photos

Hi! Well I had a busy weekend. But enough about me. Amy sent some photos so I'm going to post a few.

"The less populated bit of wreck beach, down a different trail. It is a nice beach, the tide is in here. I liked this bit better and you had a better view of the ships going past. If i had the camera moved slightly to the right you may have seen some of the 'locals' ;-) "(Note from Mindy, this is a beach right near where she lives, and actually happens to be a popular nudist beach).

"my pride and joy. it took me so long to take a picture of a squirrel- they move quickly. i took this yesterday in stanley park (google it those of you who don't know what that is). There were heaps around. they have black and grey ones here, the black ones are probably more common and look really evil. They are quite clever. they climb into rubbish bins then jump out at you, giving you a hell of a fright. they use their hands to hold their nuts. it is very cute. i don't think i will be able to send racoon pictures as they are nocturnal and when i see one i won't be sticking around (they are huge and attack with rabies)" (Note from Mindy: to overseas people who don't quite get this picture we don't have squirrels in NZ so they are extremely exciting...)

"at last a picture of me! i know that is what you were all waiting for. this is me in front of the stanley park totem poles. they are pretty cool. a lot for colourful than maori carvings. i haven't been to the museum yet where the world's largest collection is but willl soon hopefully"
