    What great pictures and what a great adventure. The landscape is beautiful and the territory is so interesting. I can't wait to visit myself.

    I can appreciate Susan's choice of attractions to admire. I hope she was able to go to a special attraction of the boys down under to admire their many talents.

    "Mad Max - 2017"

    So here's a car we saw, parked in a handicapped spot (it DID have a tag) ! They have a lot of "El Camino"-looking cars in Australia, but to my surprise, not a lot of U.S. style pick-ups !!! ...a "blast from the past" !

    Now doesn't this look like something that would be used in a "Mad Max" movie (except for the shiny paint job, and the rims !!!) ???

    Darwin ; Day Trip 1

    ...to Litchfield National Park, south of Darwin

    Second stop : Florence Falls...what another beautiful place !!! Too many stairs for our old knees to walk to the bottom, and the Swimming Hole (and back up !!!) , but beautiful sights from along the walkway...

    So we wandered down another path...The "Shady Creek Walk"...

    OMG !!! What a peaceful, serene walk...and a little footbridge that crossed one of the tributaries to the Falls...

    We had to stop, take off the shoes, and dip our toes !

    Going back a bit, in time...sorry !!!

    The aboriginal show in the Blue Mountains...the performers mentioned that they WEREN'T from this area, but they explained what part of Australia they were each from, and their "tribes" honored the songs and dances of the "local" tribe !!!

    We got "marked"...it was explained as a tribute/remembrance of "The Mother, The Father, and The Ancestors" ! (the 3 stripes...)

    The hair on the back of my neck stood up...AWESOME !!!

    Kona..

    You're sick...That's in Vegas, not Australia !!!

    Next time we do Vegas, we might catch them...but I'll demand "equal time" !!!

    A funny story : The Wife has a Nephew who lived in Vegas...married a dancer from one of the shows...she is awesome !!! We went to the wedding...as a 5' 6" Guy, I was surrounded by tall Amazon Women in the bridal party !!!

    It was SOOO FUNNY !!!! The criteria for dancers was to be tall, and have long legs...a boob job didn't hurt, either !!! The Girls were all AWESOME !!! I wasn't so hot about the groomsmen...but oh my !!!
