About the Ebook
This book chronicles our journey through Australia, from Sydney and Melbourne in the east to Adelaide in the south and to Cairns and Darwin in the north. Australians can out-Texas Texans. It is the geographic size of the continental US with the population of Texas and most people live within 50 miles of the coast. The interior to the south is vast and desert-like. The tropical forests in the north are dense and deadly. Crocodiles more than 7 meters (24 feet) long rule the waterways and the sap from many plants can kill you if you brush against them the wrong way. Our photographs and notes depict the possibilities open to you for a similar adventure.
