best place for holiday in Australia

My atlas has Australia in Australasia, not Asia.
Or is this the town of Australia in Thailand?

Some spammers are just really stupid I guess.

Hi Pat

Yes it is expensive, but I confess I use it every time I go to East Africa
as it has absolutely no side effects (for me, and I believe pretty much
everyone).

Great collection.
It looks like you spent some time on the east coast (beaches etc) which we

Weaver bird on Safari Cam

Just checked in and they have zoomed in on a weaver bird nest in an acacia
tree - where the adult is busy weaving away.
Very cool.!
