Its the end of another week, the first week back at work and its a Sunday. Long breakfast at "the office" is the first thing for the day and then we will see what is of interest to do.

The image today is of course me and Stevie, one of the nice people at the Red Tongue. He missed out one being photographed with me before we left on our travels, so we have made up for it today. I am of the belief that Steve is single and available, and he would be a great catch for the right person.

Back to work today.

Well our long holiday has come to an end, my owner will have to go back to work to pay for my trip and to start saving for the next one. Now that I have got a liking for this international travel, we will have to start planning the next 3 month break, Greece, Italy, Russia and some other places.

Todays picture is of me and Michelle, my owner has left me on her desk to keep and eye on her. As you can see, she must be a very busy person, as she has two computers on her desk to assist her.

Well we have been home for a few days now. And as usual, Sunday was a long breakfast at my owner's favourite cafe, The Red Tongue. As the weather is cold, he has spent a bit of time inside sorting the thousand of images he has taken while on our travels. I have found a few images that I had not included on my daily blog, so might add them over the next week or so. The next few days will be catching up with friends, etc. Some long breakfasts seem to be the order for most of the days. I don't eat much, but I still get to sit up at the table and be a part of things.

Today a parcel arrived from France, via London, it was the photograph storage unit that froze up while in Germany. It was to much relief that the data stored had not been affected, and the 600 images from the Road Trip and LA, were on there. Somehow my owner, had not backed them up on to DVD while in Dallas. So the 6500 images are now complete. The family are really going to love the slide night, they will be forced to sit through all of the images with electrodes placed to keep them awake.

Reflections

Wednesday, July 4, 2007. Melbourne 12C
Well I am glad that I am a furry bear, as it is chilly back home. Its a bit of a shock to the system to have been enjoying over 32C temperatures in Bangkok, and to be home to an expected top of 12C in Melbourne today.

Today we sat down and did a bit of calculating. I am good at pushing the buttons on the large calculator.

The total number of km's flying = 48,286 km
total number for flights = 17 flights
total number of km's driving = 750 km
total number of km's in trains = impossible to calculate
total number of km's walking = average around 18,000 to 20,000 steps most days
=

To all our American friends, Happy Independence Day.
