Farewell Kev!

Last night we said farewell to a colleague of mine and long friend Kevin Phillips. He's off with his sweetheart Katie to see what life is like in her home country, Australia. All the best Kev and we'll probably see you at Christmas time! We had drinks for their farewell last night, so hopefully I'll get some photos of that up soon.

Lu and I have been pretty busy with work the past couple of weeks. Earlier this week I played in the advertising league softball quarter finals. We came very close to winning, but lost in the last inning by 2 runs.

As we have done quite a bit of travelling in the (almost) 2 years that we've been here, we have some catching up to do with our photos. So, every week I'll try to put up a few photos from each of our trips.

New York (first trip)



Luvena and my good friend Al in a restaurant around the corner from his pad.





Luvena and I inside the United Nations.







A large brass woman that just won't leave New York.





Me overlooking Ellis Island and Jersey City.







Us in Times Square






Luvena and Marion (and some strange guy wearing goggles)
outside the Rockerfeller Centre.





Luvena, Anna and Arthur on the Statton Island ferry over to visit the statue.





New York (second trip)
I managed to score a trip to New York with a colleague and good friend, Barney, for some training. Here's some of the sites we saw. It was much colder than when Lu and I went (-18C in the wind at one point).

Barney and Al in Central Park. This was during an exhibition called The Gates.








Barney in his hotel room (yes, our eyes really did look like that most of the time)








Barney and Al having a cuddle (I'll leave you boys alone next time! :-) )
