All last week, Rob was working ridiculous hours (10 - 12 per day). He's been going literally from meeting to meeting while dealing with all local matters from the extension of business trading hours, to seeking new business enterprises which could potentially raise Gero's profile. A good thing is that Rob loves his job and also his new toy (iPad 4) if he just had a bit more time to do the actual work.
The New iPad! Sunset session at Point Moore.
I'm getting on with my client's work and also finding some local marketing and Pilates work. I've also managed to discover some possible short term photography projects so, it might all work out quite well. However, we still need to find out new home.
This sculpture is a perfect, highly-polished sphere, sitting on a fountain that bubbles water up from underneath. The water pressure from below forces one side of the sphere to rise, causing the sphere to rotate on its base. The origin of the water shifts from side to side, causing the sphere to rotate in the opposite direction! VERY cool!
This is a replica of the boat that the mutineers of the Batavia rowed/sailed from Geraldton to Indonesia! A couple thousand kilometres!
We had very social weekend which brought us our first visitor, Ian Young -- long time friend of Rob and also the first kitesurfer in Australia.
On Sunday, we got involved in a local community project 'Clean Up Australia Day' which was coordinated by Rob's colleagues from City of Greater Geraldton. It was a great opportunity for us to meet some locals including the Scuba Diving group. Rob and I collected FOUR huge bags of rubbish from the rocks along foreshore. Can't believe how much crap people throw on the ground and in the water! Plastic bottles, plastic bags, Maccas' bags and cups, straws, cigarette butts-- even 10 shopping carts raised from the bottom by divers. You name it, we found it!
