Bill has posted some photos and info about his trip.

http://valavanisbonsaiblog.com

There are some great photos of Pup and his trees in there too, and I think that might be Jason I spotted in the AusBonsai shirt in there. Total of six posts with lots of good photos. Reading through it, he seemed very impressed with the state of bonsai in Australia, demo material, etc.
Cheers, Karl

haha that would be me! Didn't even realise I'd made an appearance :P Had only read the article with Pup in it, will have to read the rest of the blog now :)
Have a question? The AusBonsai Wiki most likely has the answer!

Looking for a Nursery or Club near your? Check out the AusBonsai Directory which lists them all

Good spot Karl.
That was a good read.
Bill sounds great.
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
