The Amazing Race

Roadkills - 1 (a bird)

Near roadkills - 5 (1 cow, 2 peacocks, 1 cat, 1 wallibee)

Days travelled - 5

Distance covered by car - ~ 800 km

I'm back from Tasmania!!!! That trip was absolutely fantastic!!! I'm sunburned and peeling but that trip was worth it. Thanks Bea and friends for planning the trip =) I've never seen so many wildlife creatures in my entire life.

Beatrice and I had an upclose encounter with a venomous snake and a bee. "O crap, whats that? Run~!!!"

Here are a couple of photos of our Tasmania trip. I only took a couple of photos with my camera. Im yet to receive the other photos. Till then, enjoy these photos.



On one of the short walks at Cradle Mountain

The Little Blue Lake - Seriously, the lake was really really blue! This is because the water in the little blue lake is acidic and high in aluminium, a mineral leached from decomposing granite. As a result, only certain colours of the spectrum is reflected making the lake appear really really blue! Dont you just feel like swimming in it? Unfortunately swimming is not permitted due to its high acidity content.

A bennett wallibee. Lots of these little friends in Tasmania.

As we were driving along the road, we noticed this plant that looked like a huge pink rock. Being jakun Malaysians, we got down and started camwhoring with the plant.

Me =)
