Cal has been with us now for two weeks and he's a joy to have stay. He's from Brittany, northern France, has an M.Sc in engineering and a B.Sc in marine biology, and he's having a gap year before he starts work. He's fantastic company and an excellent worker - and loves to cook. Here he is posing in front of his very tasty crepes.
and here is a chocolate cake he recently made...delicious
Cal (short for Calixte) has also been busily painting the front verandah in a deep ocean blue, which appeals to his maritime sensibilities.....
and of course, being a reptile enthusiast, he has enjoyed making friends with the oh-so-photogenic Kimba, the woma. The injury on Cal's nose was not caused by us, but rather the outcome of an incorrectly placed dive into the surf down past Byron last Sunday...the poor guy's bridge of his nose and part of his forehead are quite badly grazed. Steve took Cal on a big coastal adventure last Sunday while I was in Singapore on a work trip. We're heading down to Angourie, a small coastal village south of Yamba, this coming Saturday, which should be excellent fun.
