The Governor General, Quentin Bryce, flew in yesterday for a surprise visit. With the river still above major flood levels, we are are still isolated and will be till at least late this week.

Just a few from yesterday.

Help with adjustments to her helmet



On their way

Fixed.

The last two are great images - i wish she was smiling in the second last one, it would make for a really neat portrait. I think even the smaller size flight helmet is gonna be too big for her!
