Day 3.216: Polyphemus and the splash park

Regular readers may recall my horror over the size of certain moths in the State Museum. Well today, quite unexpectedly E5N1 and I had a close encounter with a live wild Polyphemus Moth (one of the largest of all). We had left the car having some new tires (!) fitted and were killing time by taking a walk. In the supermarket car-park was this beautiful and huge moth - damaged but still capable of strong flight as we discovered. Wonderful!

Since yesterday E5N1 has been determined to visit the local outdoor pool and splash park - talking about it to everyone at every opportunity - he calls it the "Splashing Pool".  After lunch today we went and we had a very nice time making the most of the sun to hopefully help to reset our body clocks back onto Eastern Time.

Talking of which, I should be getting to bed!
