Let's see:
Home to 10/10 of the world's most poisonous snakes;
Home to many poisonous spiders;
Home to the poisonous Cane Toad (even if it isn't a native);
Home to Salt Water Crocs;
Great White sharks in the surrounding oceans;
Box Jelleyfish in the surrounding oceans;
YEP, sounds like God's Country to me

It's a well-established fact that everything south of the Equator is poisonous and out to kill you.
Have fun Sam!

LOL, nice deflection. I must resist the temptation to respond.... ah, heck, it's just tooo tempting
red back spider --> let's talk brown recluse
only the brown can kill --> I've heard the taipans can kill too
only eat americans --> thank goodness: I'm Canadian
cane toads not in Sydney --> I thought this was about Australia
I don't walk around in the ocean --> and you call yourself an Ozzie?!
LOL, I'm just teasing of course. I would visit OZ if I could afford to

Hey Gang
Still enjoying our hotel's wifi while I can. So far beautiful blue skies when we landed. Looking forward to another day of exploring. Have not been attacked by any critters yet.
Netroam, I'm going to be doing the Sydney Harbour bridge climb on Monday. I'll get to see it real close.

Glad you're enjoying the trip Samantha. Looks like much better weather than the approaching winter in the UK here.
