This image above is from my New Zealand and Australia photo gallery and shows a fish surfing. I took this photo today on Rottnest Island located West of Perth Australia in the Indian Ocean. I had a great time snorkeling and trekking around by myself. I was not aware until later I was completely surrounding by venom with the dugite snakes, stonefish, box jellies, red back and white tailed spiders, and deadly harpooning cone snails.
More images from Rottnest which was named that after the native quokkas were mistaken for rats so the island was rats nest.
I had an absolute great time with Steve Johnson yesterday running all over his part of Western Australia from North of Perth and the Aquarium of Western Australia down to Safety Bay South of Fremantle (Freo) and points in between.. Thank you Steve. For those not aware Steve has been the author of the AutoCAD Bug Watch Column in Cadalyst Magazine for many years.

I am taking it easy tomorrow and perhaps just walking over to Kings Park. Tuesday I will be back in New Zealand for a day due to a flight lay over and then another long flight back home all totaled it will be about 21 hours on a plane in one day. What is odd is since I travel back over the international date line, I will be effectively extending (or time shifting) May 23rd beyond 24 hours.
Cheers,
Shaan
