So yeah, it was my last day here really - next time I'm in Canberra is, in theory, the 6th of August, literally one month away. How scary is that? I'm alone for like, four weeks... wow, four weeks on my own.

Anyway, today Graham and I went to the Deep Space Tracking Centre just outside Canberra, which was actually really interesting. I've got a few pictures somewhere in here, but they weren't the most interesting thing. The best thing was a program they have running on some computers there called Celestial - it is updated constantly from the data they are collecting, and represented visually. For example, it can show you various stars, and even the International Space Station - at 1052 this morning, it was over the Pacific, just in case you want to know.

A nice landscape.. despite the fact it was caused by a massive bushfire.

We came back, and the rest of the day has been spent packing - we're off to the Blue Mountains tomorrow! They are outside Sydney, and it's going to be awesome! Seriously, I can't help but feel that my trip really starts here. As it stands, of course, I'm going under the radar - and before anyone (ANDREW!) takes that the wrong way, it means my blog is going to become a bit more sporadic, and when they do appear they might not have pictures on them. I'll put them when and as I can, don't worry, I won't vanish completley - unless I meet a very hot Aussie bird, in which case don't count on seeing me anytime soon! Woooo!... Ahem.

Anyway, talk soon, take care y'all.
