Jesus lives, though not the trees
My flight path into Adelaide yesterday went over the area where the once mighty River Murray now trickles into Lake Alexandrina and the sea, and where an ecological disaster has been unfolding over the past decade of drought. Ironically, only minutes further on I saw this ‘Jesus lives‘ spelt out by lopping down trees. Join the dots, people.
Then I was delighted to glimpse of a large teddy bear on a bicycle on the grass between the Adelaide Airport runways as we landed! Apparently his name is Buck, he’s been around for 27 years, and his attire changes every now and then to reflect local interests. This time he was celebrating the Tour Down Under which took place in January.
The bear is so cute! If I’d known it existed I would have looked for it on my way to Perth in ’08.
(Man, that’s almost two years ago now!)
Yeah! The fact that he’s been around so long and is unofficial makes him really cool. I saw him again yesterday as we taxied out. Don’t know why I’ve never heard of or seen him before.
