These are pictures of Echidna from my last visit to Australia.  The first one is in the wild, and you can see his beak to the upper left.  The others are taken in the Featherdale Wildlife Park in Sydney–a great place!  I’ve always thought they were cute and have seen them several times in New South Wales.

Just for fun!  Tracy is enjoying a pretty unique view of downtown Calgary, Alberta from the Calgary Tower.  (Canadian Rockies Rail Highlights tour)  We added an extra day to the tour just to have time to explore the beautiful city of Calgary.

Ready for the Zip Line in the Cloud Forest!

What a great time we had in Russia!

Sometimes you just need something weird!

I think the “Mer-man” at the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa qualifies!
