This weekend, the CLOCKS GO FORWARD in the USA/Canada - but not in Europe!
Safari starts at 21.00 CET (Paris time)
So if you're thinking of coming on Safari next week to see Ferd and then Crista, please note: this week, the Safari begins an hour later than usual... be a friend, remind your fellow travelers!

Via Ferd Frederix "Before you visit Silent Refueling, there is an interesting documentary - "Making Of Silent Running" - that's relevant. They filmed it on an aircraft carrier, and they show the "mechanically challenged" actors and how the robots were made to work (also relevant as I have the actors photos in a room there).

Also, the director passed away just a few weeks ago.
