Changing on the Fly
Our original Australian itinerary included a quick trip out to Uluru (Ayer's Rock) to see what has been described as the best sunrise and sunset view in the world. However, the plane tickets out that way are a little out of our budget range. Therefore, we're changing course a bit and heading down to Tasmania instead. We chose Tasmania for a couple of reasons: 1) a lot of people told us it looks very much like the South Island of New Zealand and it supposedly has some beautiful mountains and lakes and is filled with good day hikes...and 2) March is Free Devil Month,
so we get a free Tasmanian devil with our airline ticket! Okay, the last part is just wishful thinking on my part. The little devil has been added to the list of animals/pets/new friends I want to bring back with me. It joins the kangaroo, the koala, the wombat, the penguin, the kiwi, and a host of others I'm sure to discover along the way.

Matt, CC needs to do something about those whiskers. She doesn't look like she is enjoying the trip. Just kidding! Good stuff.
By the way, I was hoping you would travel to Ayer's Rock and hike up to the top. There is a book you can sign. I was going to have you look through the archives to June, 1992, the year I hiked it.
Ryan...we found that one out on our first night in Australia.
