You are spot on again Sextus.

I did an astronomy class a few years ago.
We had an outing to the Royal National Park one night.
It took around 30 minutes in the darkness for our eyes to adjust.
The night sky was awesome.

I have also seen fabulous night skies in Central Australia.

Some of the other "things" that I like about Australia / Sydney.

Shelley, Lola, Julie, Joanna, Joey, Nana, Jennifer, etc, etc.

One day soon I would like to meet Christmas.
