I'm not one to understand the appeal of jumping off bridges, but this is a photo of my daughter a couple days ago at Lake Taupo, having her version of a lot of fun. She thinks we should all move to New Zealand where her brother could take up raising sheep or llamas.

She's in Australia now, avoiding jellyfish. Or so she tells me.

Lucky duck.

Excuse me while I return to my Janet Frame.

    C. made me watch a clip yesterday of someone jumping in Thailand who slipped out of his harness. He survived, and the crazy person says he now intends to jump out of an airplane.
