This is why I own a water proof camera.

I shot this whilst snorkelling in the whitsunday Islands last week. Listen for the whale-song in the background. I never heard it over my breathing, but the camera apparently did.
The full story and about a million pictures will be coming shortly. Probably when I'm finally back home next week.
Love you all, Brendan

Also I...

Hey Kids! I'm in Hervey Bay!
I just finished a 3 day 4-wheel drive bus tour on Fraser Island with Marco (Yeah, I'm travelling with him again. you'd think I'd have learned the first 3 times). I'm just finishing the first of a long 4 weeks of steady travelling.

It had an interesting start on Saturday as I was leaving for the airport and discovered...

I totally just found out it's _Elichrusos's Birthday today. Apparently she didn't want anyone to know. So go wish her a Happy Birthday, K? Thanks.

Well kids, I had a talk with the powers that be. It seems they have decided it's worth their while to keep me happy. No big surprise really. The upshot is that I told them I was taking the next 2 weeks off. I'm headed to Darwin on Monday. I may hire a car and drive down through the centre back to Adelaide. I will...

So I may be quitting my job soon, since they seem to think I would be ok with not taking a holiday 'til July. After agreeing with me when I started that I would be able to work 2-3 weeks at a time with 1-2 week holidays in between for travel. I'm being underpaid as it is, and they know it. The only reason I...
