I'm in Cairns Australia and am finally recovering from my numerous fijian injuries and look forward to being able to walk pain free. For around 2 weeks my feet have been pretty badly cut up due to a beach volleyball incident and a fleeing from poisonous water snakes in shallow water over pointy rocks incident. Australia has been good so far. The animals here seem a lot larger than the ones I'm used to. Their crows are the size of human babies and even sound like them. We're going to visit a rainforrest in a couple of days. One of the last things we did in fiji was a rainforrest walk that lead us to various waterfalls, including one with a roap swing over it leading into a deep pool. It was really amazing, and we stayed a little too long. We left as night was falling and the bats started to come out. I've seen bats before, but nothing like this. They were the size of racoons and had the wing span of lets say, a monkey of equal size to a racoon if it were to have had a wing span. They were big and the forrest was swarming with them.
I have to leave now. Must go to a bar and mingle with the ausies.
