Can you show us the way to the mystical Dugongs?

Here are the Sea-cows! Legend had it that sailors, travel mad and looking for love, would throw themselves into the sea, mistaking these creatures for mermaids. That scurvy will mess a brother up!

Summer of Sharks
With six attacks, one fatality, and numerous sightings since Christmas, this has been 'the Summer of Sharks'. Clean waters and fishing limits have made these predators' numbers sail. What a country!

Platypus
The Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is a semi-aquatic mammal endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, the only mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. It is the sole living representative of its family (Ornithorhynchidae) and genus (Ornithorhynchus), though a number of related species have been found in the fossil record. The bizarre appearance of this egg-laying, venomous, duck-billed, beaver-tailed, otter-footed mammal baffled European naturalists when they first encountered it, with some considering it an elaborate fraud. It is one of the few venomous mammals; the male Platypus has a spur on the hind foot that delivers a venom capable of causing severe pain to humans. The unique features of the Platypus make it an important subject in the study of evolutionary biology and a recognisable and iconic symbol of Australia; it has appeared as a mascot at national events and is featured on the reverse of the Australian 20 cent coin. The platypus is the animal emblem of the state of New South Wales. https://epedia.pbwiki.com/f/Platypus%203.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platypus

Our summer ended on a high when we saw Neil Young live at the Sydney Entertainment Centre. Here he is rocking with 'Old Black', his 1953 Gibson Les Paul guitar. Here is another classic for you. Run, Neil, Run! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LrwZLa-kM4&feature=related

Star Wars and Star Fish
Don and Michelle, that was awesome! As you know I am a Star Wars (nerd) fan. I saw a similar show whilst traveling through Edinburough, Scotland. Don, no the cape is very slimming, Gabe, I could tell which one was the robot--great disguise, and thanks for the Platapus! Can't wait to get her/him. My cats will be thrilled! And yes, the Sears Catalogue rocks! Can I have your autograph? LOL! T

Hi Guys! What great pictures. Simon loved the star wars and aquarium shots and only wanted to know when we'd be going there ourselves, prompting a short geography lesson. Missing you and happy to hear that you are lovin' your travels. They sound fantastic. Hugs
