Travels Down Under:
Koalas and Cyber-goths<\/FONT><\/B><\/p>\n

Monday, April 25, 2011<\/I><\/B>

\n* Area around Canberra<\/A>, Australia Capital Territory<\/A>, Australia<\/A> *

A later start to the day, Sir Bluey<\/A> heated up the last of the kangaroo meat<\/A> for lunch. This time the adventuring duo spiced it up with a peanut satay sauce which Sir Thomas Leaf thought tasted amazing. Sir Thomas Leaf also gifted Sir Bluey with some Pirate Relief<\/A> stickers for his car after finding them while organizing his gear as he would soon be heading off for the high seas. Sir Bluey Bee proudly displayed them on his car as they were soon off to Gibraltar Falls<\/A>. As the delvers headed down the path towards the cliffs leading to the waterfall, Sir Bluey expressed strongly to Sir Leaf not to wander off the trail out of fear he might slip and fall on the rocks. For once (perhaps in his lifetime) Sir Leaf listened. But Sir Bluey Bee did not to his own advice and a slip, slide, tumble, roll, and splash … Sir Bluey was on his ass. Luckily he was fine. But they both laughed. Quickly distracted from the humor as they were in awe of Gibraltar Falls<\/A>. Scenic panoramas and beautiful tumbling waters falling down the rocks. After wandering around the falls, the explorers headed off to the Tidbinbilla Nature reserve<\/A> in search of kangaroos<\/A>, eucalyptus trees<\/A>, wallabees<\/A>, quolls<\/A>, and koalas<\/A>. Wandering through the park provided much viewing of kangaroos and wallabies, and even a koala. Admiring the flora and fauna, Sir Thomas Leaf photographed and notated all the different species he spied. He even actually saw a Platypus<\/A>, but unfortunately it went underwater before he could take a photograph. That evening, Sir Bluey Bee and Sir Thomas Leaf donned their darkest dress and headed downtown Canberra<\/A> for the Chrome Goth Night<\/A> at the Underground Bar<\/A> underneath the Canberra YHA<\/A>. Cyber-goth pleased, the two comrades had a blast at the night as they shared ciders and flirts with the fair maidens … a late night and a good sleep welcomed them in the wee hours of the morn. <\/p>\n
