In approx. 8 months on the Australian continent, I drove a total of 30'000 Km.

And some interesting moments during that time were : One flat tyre, One broken windshield due to a flying stone, One sheep that took a too-close look at my bumper, One speeding fine (114 Km/h in a 110 zone. 125 AU$) One parking ticket at Sydney airport, 1min away = 40 AU$ More than 5000 pictures taken with my Nikon Coolpix885 |

I was fascinated by all these litle creatures running arround. The left one, from leg tip-to-tip would fit on a CompactDisk but is harmless. The right one, body and legs fits on your thumb nail. He's called "Red back" and his bite could be deadly if not treated quickly. |

Wonderful bar-be-ques | Very strong winds (cancelled many flying lessons) |
Bush fires cutting electricity for several hours | A couple very, very hot days |
