In the Garden of Eden, Honey
The Eden Project was amazing! What a fascinating
fusion between engineering and horticulture. The tropical ‘biome’ (it’s what you call them don’t ya know) is the biggest, and where most of my photos have been taken. Its atmosphere is kept between 60-80% humidity and about 30-35 degrees C, not the most pleasant atmosphere to be walking around in!
We were staying in Newquay, a small town not all that far from the Eden Project. It had a fantastic beach (where the beach photos were taken, unsurprisingly) on which we enjoyed several cold beers - they come in 500mL cans here - and some good ol’ fashioned fish and chips. Choice!

Find any iron butterflies?

Hah, no. But interestingly they had quite a pro-Genetic Engineering point of view, as a solution to the world’s hunger and climate problems. Interesting from a group of “greenies”.

I um…. There are a lot of mac users here, they are all going to love this http://store.apple.com/133-622/WebObjects/australiastore.woa/wo/0.RSLID?mco=E8F0793B&nplm=MA272ZM%2FA
No why on earth would you make it cost $109 though? Makes me glad I didn’t play $79 for the wired one however :/. By the same token, I should save a bit stumpjumper

I found another cool little piece of mac software, so I thought I’d share.

Called wiretap, it allows you to record audio from streams to aiff, for storage on iTunes, iPods, etc.
Easy to use, technically US$19, but works as a basic recorder indef. without registration. Just press record, then play…
Enjoy,
