Gulliver stems from the protagonist 'Gully Foyle' from Alfred Bester's The Stars My Destination. Xerxes is in honour of the Persian king 486 to 465 BC. Conroy is Morgan's maternal grandfather's surname.

The swim park would have been heaven sent! How did Gully cope with the humidity? Zac didn't cope at all well, so we ended up skipping the zoo and hanging out in an air conditioned mall and an out door fountain for our last day!
Yes, the swim park was fantastic. Gully is fine with humidity--a Brissy boy from birth. Still, the five hours at the zoo with extra humidity from all the running water and dense vegetation was draining for us all. Icecreams, fluids and a happy ride home in air-conditioned bus were appreciated!
