Wow David It's like Australia is a whole different world than the Northern & Western Hemispheres. I enjoy your bush pictures. Regards, Chris

Hello Chris. Yes, you are so correct in saying, its a different world down here in Australia. My wife came from Europe, and she said basically the same thing and added, its the complete oppersite to anything in Europe!!. The plants in the Bush or Forest as you call it are different. Strange looking animals that hop everywhere! Beaches that have sand as white as snow and most of the time, with no-one on them except yourself!!! Even the clouds different down here and of course, the moon is upside down and the water rund down the bath or sink the oppersite way to it down where you live. Just in case you are thinking of coming down this way, you may want to see this first. Kind Regards, David

Hi David My wife and I had a good laugh at your video link. I still think it won't deter us from visiting some day. She stepped on a sea urchin once in the Virgin Islands and she still wants to snorkel again. The sharks get me nervous though! Sincerely, Chris

**They get me nervous too. I don't even go swimming unless, its over 45C, but only in the shallows as I can't swim anyway!!! :-) But we are in thier territory aren't we!!! Kind Regards, from, David
