My favourite was a small bison-like figure that's just a couple of inches above you but really difficult to photograph, the bird is amazing too and a bit easier to capture. You find yourself staring at them in an open mouthed gurning chump kind of way. Last time I was there was about a year and a half ago and the on-site sewage farm (I kid you not) was gone and the main road through the site had been dug up and replaced with a track, they've been spending a lot of money to try and get some kind of international status recognition I think. -Chris Reply | with quote |  21st March 2009ce 11:00 In reply to: a book (Rhiannon) |
