Recreation, Australian Style Some of the team members and family visited a wildlife preserve in Adelaide. Reports are that the koalas really are as soft and furry as they look! Hand feeding the kangaroos was a snap since they were so fat and friendly from being fed by tourists all day long. Some players and family members also reported a fun time frolicking in the Indian Ocean. They report that the water is very cold but that it felt great as a relief from the intense Australian heat. Schedule Tidbits New tournaments are starting in Canberra and Perth on the 27th. Reports will be faxed from Canberra to Perth and then emailed to us here in the U.S. so there may be a slight delay in posting of all the results each day. Final games are on the 30th. Final report will probably be a wrap up on the 31st.
