Our Friendly Baby Kookaburra

This baby kookaburra comes and parades outside our bedroom window each morning. Such a simply and pleasurable experience. I love being Australian. I love living here.

The Sydney 'Eye' Outside Tour

Just for the record, when we were in Sydney we took the lift to the 300m top of the Sydney Eye, donned protective clothing, chained ourselves to the platform (experiencing a bizarre feeling of being a convict?), and walked around, being entertained by an exquisite commentary about the view. Beautiful day. An experience not to be missed. Mind you, the experience taxed this partially recovered paraplegic with getting into the overalls, and then having to climb up and down the stairs. The 4D 2 minute video is also an experience not to miss.
