[Leica] IMG: Even more Adelaide photos from Brian's visit

[hopsternew at gmail.com (Geoff Hopkinson)]

Folks I have completed uploads for this gallery.
I added 23 more photos, starting from this one:
http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/a/br/41Ad.jpg.html

You can see a giant Scotsman and his very large hound who had rather bad
manners,
a variety of street performers, including the amazing Tallula from British
Columbia,
martial artists
at least fifty senoritas
some very serious folks and some pretty silly ones
Comments very welcome. There are 65 photos total in the gallery for your
entertainment
