Sir
Parsley’s world tour November and December
2008
|
|
|
|
My
first stop on my world tour was Hong Kong. This is me looking
handsome at the top of the peak. It is certainly smoggy up
there.
|
As I like
to fit in wherever I go, I bought a kimono to wear. I also
couldn’t resist this photo opportunity!
|
|
|
|
After my
very first trip with William & Sarah to The Venetian
in Las Vegas, I convinced them to visit The Venetian in Macau.
It is just the same – but I won less money in the casino.
|
We went to
see a big Buddha. We had to travel by cable car and climb so
many steps.
|
|
|
Here I am
on the cable car back from the big Buddha – starting
my 2009 “vehicle” challenge a bit early!
|
My next
stop was Perth, Australia. I quickly adapted to my new surroundings
and bought myself a “mankini”. I
had a lovely day on the island of Rottnest where the sun shone
and I could show off my lovely physique.
|
|
|
As I love to meet the local wildlife, I spend some time socialising
with the quokkas. Rottnest is the only place in the world you
can find these marsupials, which are a bit like a cross between
tiny kangaroos and tiny koalas. They are friendly too!
|
Then I jetted off to the Gold Coast on the East coast of Australia for a few
days. Here I am in the rainforest with the amazing waterfall behind me.
|
|
|
As I am
a roving ambassador, naturally I was not at all star struck
when I bumped into Robert Kilroy Silk on the day that he
was evicted from the “I’m a celebrity get me
out of here” jungle. He was delighted to have his photo
taken with me and was really impressed with my fundraising
exploits.
|
After
all that mingling with the celebs, I needed some reality. So
I jetted off to Sydney and visited summer bay – the set
of Home and Away. Alf Stewart was out on a life saving expedition
so I just had my photo taken outside his surf shop.
|
|
|
Here I am doing my bit for rescue.
|
I had some time relaxing by Sydney harbour bridge before my
next long flight.
|
 |
 |
After Australia, I had a brief stay in Los Angeles. I thought
I would make myself useful by posing as a Christmas fairy on
the top of the tree on the very posh Rodeo Drive.
|
Just in case
you were not convinced that I really was on Rodeo Drive… |
 |
|
My final stop before returning to blighty was New York. Here
is The Statue of Sir Parsley. |
Just one final cheeky shot of me by the Christmas tree at
The Rockefeller Centre before my flight home. Personally I think
the tree is a bit OTT! |
