The view from my "office"

2 expat couples chucked in corporate life to set up a buffalo milk dairy in Laos to create cheese. It's just out of Luang Prabang on the way to Kuang Si waterfall, in just two years they have produced incredible results, helping the locals breed better buffalo through cross breeding and introducing them to dairy products.

Read more about them and the herd here. Home

Highly recommended stop on the way to the falls, or even just a trip by itself. Very nice and friendly and the ice cream is very good as well.

A friend of daughter has set up a buffalo milk property out of Adelaide, so it was very interesting to read your report on Laos, Cossie.

Interesting fact that we were told is that lactose intolerant people can drink/eat buffalo milk.

We are on the southern area of the Clipsal 500 race and they loop across ‘our back yard’. Dashed out today but will be better prepared tomorrow.

This year, multiple planes and again tomorrow. Cold Chisel concert last night after race. Tomorrow - Robbie Williams.

Adelaide weather RAdelaide perfect. City is alive with Fringe, Arts Festival and next week WomAdelaide.

We just had a couple of flyovers here - ADFA parade - Hornets and a Globemaster (which was really low). Sadly didn’t get any pics.

Where are you @CaptJCool? Not Wakefield but maybe Flinders Street? The opposite side to me. I could see them spiralling up. In fact, I can see my house from here :D (joke btw)

Yep that's Flinders and Hutt..... not much action on the corner although a rare 360 spin-out.... at that time of the morning the sun is behind you so better photos from your side plus building intrusions mean I missed seeing the full spiralling.... perhaps I'll jump on the rooftop when the FA-18 shows up at 2.54pm

Ah. Our office is on Flinders Street. About 500 metres from you then. 2.45? Dammit. I’m at the dentist.
