  • Fairlie ice rink

    We visited the Fairlie ice rink during the Aardwolfs Southern Migration. Not a lot to see really, just a mud bog!

    The Aardwolfs babes provided some amusement by strutting their stuff for the camera.

  • Penguin

    I was dressed in a Yellow Eyed Penguin suit as the mascot for the World Friendship Ice Hockey Games. There were teams from USA, Canada, Australia, Korea and New Zealand. The suit was ridiculously hot inside and skating became more of a sliding waddle πŸ˜› The kids seemed to enjoy it though and none of them kicked me in the balls πŸ™‚ I wore a cup just in case though πŸ™‚
