We travelled from NZland to OZ yesterday, arriving late at 11 pm. There, outside the shuttle window, were the stars in the night sky -- and the southern cross was right out my window. It was quite breathtaking!
We couldn't see it for the whole vacation in NZland. For the last month, there was a lot of fog, cloud and rain and we could never see much of the night sky. But arriving here, total clear sky at night and nice hot day today.
WE drove up Mt Wellington today, which Darwin climbed over 100 yrs ago, and could see about 1/3 of Tasmania. It was such a clear day we thought we should do that first and explore more mundane areas tomorrow. We want to do the old penal colony at Port Arthur and drive north to the wineries at Launceston next.
Cheers!
"No worries folks" as they say here!
