LUCKY PIG, ROLY POLY, 3-legged
The creation of the Chanchitos pig hails from the town of Pomaire, a Chilean town located west of Santiago. The land of Pomaire is extremely fertile in natural clay and has been noted for its lovely pottery creations handed down from generation to generation using the same ancient techniques passed on from their ancestors since the late 1600s. Apart from creating pottery ware and ceramics, the town is also well noted for its inception of the famous and rather cute three legged pig figurines known as Chanchitos pig. 

These little pigs are endowed with the blessings of ushering good luck and goodwill to its recipient.  They appear to have been assimilated in the face of this vibrant little town as a common good luck statue seen in shops and restaurants which have also become closely acculturated into the beliefs of the people of this town. 

Tourists passing their way through Pomaire looking for some giftware reminiscent of this lovely town may find it very hard to fend off the look of the unusual and adorable piggy figurine with the three legs and eventually these little pigs become part of the merchandise and gifts purchased in this town. 

As each of these little pigs weaves their way into our society, it is only natural that the idea behind their existence is also upheld. After all, we all like good luck charms to keep our lives secure, happy and filled with luck every single day.

ray4.jpg (54530 bytes)

Looking like giant leaves floating in the sea thousands of Golden Rays are seen here gathering off the coast off Mexico.  The spectacular scene was captured as the magnificent creatures made one of their bi-annual mass migrations to more agreeable waters.  

Gliding silently beneath the waves they turned vast areas of blue water to gold off the northern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula.  Sandra Critelli, an amateur photographer, stumbled across the phenomenon while looking for whale sharks.

She said: "It was an unreal image, very difficult to describe. The surface of the water was covered by warm and different shades of gold and looked like a bed of autumn leaves gently moved by the wind.
"It's hard to say exactly how many there were but in the range of a few thousand.

"We were surrounded by them without seeing the edge of the school and we could see many under the water surface too.  "I feel very fortunate I was there in the right place at the right time to experienced nature at its best."  Measuring up to 7ft (2.1 meters) from wing-tip to wing-tip, Golden rays are also more prosaically known as cow nose rays.

They have long, pointed pectoral fins that separate into two lobes in front of their high-domed heads and give them a cow-like appearance.  Despite having poisonous stingers, they are known to be shy and non-threatening when in large schools.  The population in the Gulf of Mexico migrates, in schools of as many as 10,000, clockwise from western Florida to theYucatan.

We are so honored that she has shared these photos and story with the world.

(Email dated 11/17/09 from customers in Australia)  

Hi Heidi and Glenn -
Here's something to cheer you up for your coming winter.  The date on the photos is January 2009, at the height of last summer's stinking heat wave. Yesterday was the first day of cooler temps for nearly 2 weeks - ugh - and now another 2 days of 105 F. Local news last week carried an item about a wild koala (remember, they're NOT bears) that scratched at a front door in the Adelaide suburbs and simply marched into the kitchen for a drink. It hasn't left the front porch and its water bowl since....amazing, in 40 years I've never heard of this before. You don't want to try to pick up a wild koala if you value your hide - those claws are sharp for tree climbing and they're strong little devils.

Your website is amazing - you never sit still! Is there anywhere you haven't been? We have a dream to do the Inside Passage trip one day, especially since we're in the middle of this stupid heat wave - and no rain for 3 weeks. We're in the driest state on the driest continent - humidity today is 5% - as soon as you finish hanging out a normal laundry load, the first bits are dry. Everybody lives around the edges, but the Outback has it's own beauty. Stunning colors. Hope you get a chance to visit - let us know.
Cheers
Louise and Peter

According to the above information on the koalas, the photographs are authentic and depict a real event. According to a February 5 article published in The Age, the baby koala, dubbed "Star" because of her rising Internet fame, wandered into a family home during a heatwave in the Australian state of Victoria. The article notes:
A family in Maude, near Geelong, photographed the young female koala taking a dip after finding her on their verandah, shaking and distressed.

Images of the dehydrated koala bathing in a bucket of water have circulated around Australia, New Zealand and Britain.

Tracey Young's 10-year-old nephew, Tom Durren, and his sister, Kate, 6, discovered the koala on Friday when temperatures reached the high 40s (C.).
Mrs. Young said that the koala climbed into the bucket of its own accord and stayed there for about twenty minutes. A wildlife carer who later took the koala to her property for ongoing care explained that the baby may have been abandoned by its mother because of the heatwave. She added that it is not unusual for koalas to "take a dip" during hot weather.

Victoria certainly did experience a very severe heatwave during January and February 2009 that resulted in power outages and transport delays. Tragically, the severe heat in Victoria, along with other adverse conditions, contributed to the Victoria Bushfire Disaster. Many people were killed and whole townships destroyed as the fires raged through rural communities in Victoria.

Wildlife was also severely affected by the fires with massive destruction of natural habitat and the death or injury of millions of animals. Another koala, dubbed "Sam" has also become quite famous after footage of her being give water out of bottle by a fire fighter was aired on TV news. Sam has rapidly become a symbol for hope amid the chaos caused by the disaster.
