                                     Australia

Flew into Brisbrine for a two week visit, what a beautiful country.
The City Cat (shown) in Brisbane Australia is a water taxi that is used by the locals for their transportation,  while the tourist enjoys  the ride and the sights.

While in Australia  flew to Hamilton Island for a 3 day weekend. This island is one of 74 tropical islands in the Coral Sea, Hamilton Island is the only Queensland Island with a modern jet airport. The Island is just a boat ride from the Great Barrier Reef.

The Rainbow Larakeets are a pretty bird and very friendly they like to eat out of your hand and  sit on your head and your shoulders. Also, on the island the Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo is a pretty bird and just as friendly as the Rainbow Laraketts.
The Kangaroos come up pretty close to you, but they still kept their distance. A beautiful island with no vehicles only golf carts to get around in.
