I have been thinking about Meth's trip to Australia and those thoughts have sprung up within me some long forgotten dreams. One of those dreams was to survey Tazmania for evidence of the lost thylacine (Tazmanian tiger). What a tragic loss to the world when this creature was brought down from it's highest Tazmainian post with in the web of life.There is some that say that they have seen it and they have seen signs of the thylacine. Are they valid? Who knows, but the adventures that I use to think of as a child where second to none. I would sit in the hallowed halls of East High and dream of far away places where things were far better and much greater. Austrailia and it's sister island of Tazmania hold countless treasures that are yet to be discovered.
Meth, you are truley a lucky man to be able to venture off to such a great place. If you get a change to float on over to Tazmainia it would not disappoint you. It is one of the few places on earth that still holds it's wealth in ecological diverity. Humans have destroyed or severly altered other places that they have touched or inhabited, but Tazmainia has not given humans the keys to destruction. The thylacine is the only species to disapear from Tazmainia. God's speed my brother!

Run! Run! Run for your lives! The Tazmanian Devil is on the loose! Run for your lives!
Not sure if we'll get to Tazzy, as the locals call it. Faith was there in '96 and did not see any of the lost thylacine.
Maybe though...it's another flight or a fairly long ferry ride.
I can't wait to hear of your adventure and to see some photographs.
