Kakadu guide parlour trick Hello, I was doing a google search for something else, and came across your travel blog. Your tour of australia brings back awesome memories of the year I spent there in 2003-2004. Strangely enough, I have a picture of a frilled lizard that looks suspiciously like the one you have on this page. I remember driving with my guide (Don Don) through Litchfield park at about 90kph when he slammed on the brakes. We all looked on in awe as he bailed out of the Landcruiser and took off into the bush at a flat run, ducked behind a log and came up with a frilled lizard. I always suspected that this feat was too amazing to be true, as it seemed just a little too miraculous for him to spot a creature like that, 50 metres off the side of the highway, in the bush, from a speeding vehicle. After reading your tale of the same thing, I'm pretty convinced that somewhere on the side of the highway there's a captive lizard that's brought out for shows. Good times though, I wouldn't trade any of it for the world. Especially when our outboard motor died in the Mary River and we floated to within a few feet of a large saltie.
Hey Marsie! Thanks for your write up. I am quite fond of the areas you just traveled through and I am impressed with how you've talked about them. I agree with you in a lot of ways too (especially Timber Creek!) Let me know if your coming to Tasmania.
Cheers,
Adam

spot on, sheila! hey chicken,
no doubt about it, WA is pretty bloody good! i don't really like the 'outback/camping/bush tucker/billy-can' aspect though. i liked the civilised side of things. i am super offended that you didn't call me while you were here. sure, i didn't know you, but it's the principle! i didn't get to take you to the wineries and jarrah forests and ice-creameries and beaches and chocolate factories down south! next time...
thanks for the link to your blog, nice to hear your news.

Happy Belated Birthday! How brilliant Claire. Sounds like you're having an ACE time, which you thouroughly deserve lady! Although not to sure bout this new camping leaf. You may find yourself a bit lonelier on those kinds of escapades when you get back to Blighty! Hope you had a great birthday? And Valentines Day? Mine was another none event, reminds me of that one a couple of years ago, think it was the first time me and Tom met you, when we ended up in Sports Bar! Luckily nothing as tragic as that happened this year! Anyway just a quickie to wish you well. Keep it up - including the blog! Loving it! Naomi xx

Fantastic Blog I am 5 days in Singapore over New Year, your review of your trip as provided some enlightining information and viewpoints. Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
Hilarious Claire!! Hi Claire, its good to know you're having a good time harassing monks and drinking beer.
One question though, how have you managed to time travel?? Is this a new skill you picked up after we left you at the perhinthians, as its still November here!
Saw Tess last night who is slightly concerned that there is a picture of her sans maccolage on the web!!
You need to publish this blog when you get home. Hilarious!! Keep it coming.
