We had a wee bit of fog this morning. It was pretty thick around the coast...

Is that Brisbane?



You said you live in Queensland.

That's the Sydney Harbour bridge covered in fog! Lol. I live further up north from Sydney. I couldn't even see the waves properly this morning.

It looked like the Sydney Harbour Bridge, but you said you lived in Queensland which made me think it was Brisbane.

No...I've never lived in Queensland. I spent 13 years in Western Australia and now over 16 years in New South Wales. I would love to move to Queensland when I'm nearing retirement.

They are the size of snakes in Southern Alberta.

These worms look distinctively penile!  

Those earth worms look even larger than the so called giant earthworms of the PNW in western North America.  It is amazing there is an ecological niche for such a large earth worm.

I have always heard that NSW or Tasmania were the nicest parts of Australia climate and geography wise but I can understand some people prefer warmer locations.

NSW is a warm temperate climate. The winter can get chilly down to -5'C, but the summers are balmy and it averages around 30'C, the hottest spells around 40'C at most.



Tasmania can get a tad frosty!

Tasmania would have a climate similar to Southern Vancouver Island I think.

I've never been there. They have a reputation for inbreeding, sheep-shagging and serial killing...

but they also have an insane wave called Ship Stern's Bluff:

I want the tey those freshwater lobsters they have there. While we are at it the giant saltwater crabs would also be taste.

[Oerdin]

The crabs.

[DKG]

The first one is bigger than Alaskan king crabs.
