Ok, well I shipped Bambo off to Steve(SailDesign) today.. but before I did, I drove him down to San Diego, right across the freeway way Camp Pendleton, theres a gorgeous vista point where you can park and feed seagulls and look at the ocean...

















And before i sealed up the box, he gave me one last hug & we said so long...

And we're standing by to receive him. It's pretty freakin' cold here right now, but that's New England for you. I hope you packed his warm clothes...

I have some good trips lined up for him when he arrives.

Still a bit cold for that, esp since there are no boats in the water yet.

Boats in water all year round here, my mistake.

What all tourists do. Buy up big tax free. I bought 2 litres of Bacardi and some aftershave as well as a Betty Boop handbag for mum (she's a huge fan). My wife bought up big on fragrances too.

I like the shopping down there, we went there on our honeymoon and had to go back. The only thing I don't like is being hassled by every shopkeeper to come in and have a look.

No rental car. We drive on the left hand side of the road here in Aus with the steering wheel on the right hand side. We thought it best not to drive whilst in USA as you all drive on the wrong side of the road and from the passenger seat

We went down there by Greyline Coach America. It's a safe tour. I remember passing the Dolly Parton monument on the way...... (nuke power plant that looks like a set of tits with nipples on top (near camp pendleton)

Here's a question - how long have you guys been holding onto Bambo? Do I move him along after a week, or a month, or just when I run out of things to do to ... errmmmmm - i mean "with" ... him?

Originally it was 2 weeks maximum per user. But i see no problem having the little guy for 2-3 weeks as long as you post enough photo's of him. But having him for more than 3 weeks is too much as there are heaps of users waiting to have him visit.
