Pair 'o Dice

I gamble and take only my water bottle and towel.

Thirty paces later I am walking across sand so clean and fine it squeaks. My sunglasses shield my eyes from the bright white expanse of beach. I look right, then left.

There is not another soul in sight. I am completely, utterley alone.

I spread out my towel and lay face down. Beneath me the sand is warm. A light breeze tickles my shoulderblades. I can hear the waves laughing along the shore just beyond my toes. The bright, midday sun promises a spectacular sunset.

Life is oh so good.

This is my pair 'o dice.

Australia Zoo

After driving for around 2 days, we decided to go to the Australia Zoo.It was founded by Steve Irwin's father,and it is VERY,VERY, interesting.Here are the photos of the animals:


I'm not sure what type of python/constricter ssssssnake this is,
but I do know that it's big and it's perfectly happy to have a staring contest with someone inside it's house :o








This is the giant tortoise, about 1 metre long,at least 1/2 a metre deep,and around 3/4 of a metre across.







And these are some of the freshy crocs.
There's about 10-20 of them at the zoo, and they're much smaller than the saltys.








this is one of---you guessed it--- those famous Tazzie Devils!!! He's so cute;isn't he?







This gorgous boy is "Caesar", the aussie darter. He's grand in the water, and he's really silky!!

This is one of 6 of the dingos at the zoo,

and for this fella, it's naptime! He's a
lovely sandy red color with a dash of white!!!

It's a koala!!! This little angel is about to eat some leaves after a long nap!

Here's one of the cassowaries,

and he's about to eat some fruit.

Bright colors eh?

This is Bonnie, one of the two

asian small-clawed otter sisters.

Isn't she adorable??

And last, but certainly not least,

we have, the amazing, the beautiful, the blue and gold macaw!!! isn't it wonderful?
