Chris:

Thought you might like to see this fantastic 13 minute video from a Snappy Nappy Campaign-in-a-Day from Australia. They did the Peninsula. Quite entertaining to see their video recap efforts.

Click to watch the video

So lets try and give this video some more likes and shares.

Thank you

Chris
