Growing...

So a few months back (maybe even 6 - eek!) the boy came home with some very interesting Gashapon toys. (for those alien to the wonderful world of Gasha, click here)
I was expecting a new camera related toy so you can guess how surprised I was when it was these little guys...

Real life Cacti, in miniature greenhouses!
I wasn't sure how they would survive but after some TLC they have grown into these...

I am more than impressed, only problem is how do I get them out of the plastic into a bigger container...

Desert lovin'

I recently took my desert boots on an adventure to test them in their enviroment in Arizona, USA.

Please note: just because they are called desert boots doesn't necessarily mean that they are perfect for all desert conditions.
