As we are "Down-Under" here is my ticket for Elizabeth's T!
The journal:
Monday: As we have the "same" cam Ingo took mine by accident to take this pic.
EEEEK!
And yes!!! You can top that!!!
Ingo "saved" a f**** cockroach.
We went to Waldecks. Cafe - closed...Crap ice cream from Woolies...
Tuesday: Leederville and then the new museum.
Art from all sides! And facts, of course. Posts to come!
Got stung.
Wednesday: Went to the city. A stupid sting can not stop me, right, "cause I'm having a good time, having a good time...." #Freddie.
Walked way too much...
Thursday: Foot swollen, no water.
First time I cleaned my glasses in the toilet cause I had detergent on before learning we have no water.
Was shortly back, then gone. Wanted to cool my swollen foot, no such luck. Frozen can of Tuna is not the same!
Legs hurt from walking too much.
Friday: Despite that foot went to meet Sami in Bayswater and we took off to Caversham Wildlife park.
Loads of murals and animals shot with the cam (posts to come) and luckily Sami got me to see a doc. Bitten by a spider, am on antibiotics for 5 days and no more walking (much).
Weekend: Saturday: We went to the SC to see the Lunar New year festival & parade.
LOUD. Last time it was better!
It rained!!!
Later Ingo went to Elizabeth Quay to see the fireworks and drones. I stayed put and made a birthday card. Let me tell you:the little watercolor-palette is crap!
Food-wise, let's get back to our train-journey, shall we?
Indian Pacific is like this:
Sadly I was enjoying the super-mega Camel-Curry too much for thinking of taking a pic, but you see, we had space and it was real luxury, prepared be real chefs (and waaaaay too much).
Can someone stop the time from running,pretty please???
Henry's 🦁 alter Perth-ego,the Black Swan 🐣:
Let's decide for a new, exciting day, right?

Boy your food on the train does look yummy Iris. And I loved this weeks journal drawings too. I remembered your story the other day about cleaning your glasses in the toilet. grin. Have a super T day and enjoy your time away. hugs-Erika
It’s really sad that your spider bite is giving you so much pain and trouble. I hope you will soon be over it and able to enjoy all the remarkable sights, sounds, smells and flavors of Australia, as well as meeting so many familiar bloggers.

I loved reading the journal pages as usual, Iris. Looking forward to reading and seeing more of your adventures.
The food looks wonderful. And on a train, wow. Man, what a week you have had .
I always LOVE your calendar pages and SO enjoyed seeing you and Sami together. I hope you are able to walk again, soon. And of course, I LOVE the black swans. Thanks for sharing your calendar and upside down beer with us for T this Tuesday, dear Iris. I agree eeekkk on the cockroach.

from the lake Kathy
That pic didn't look like a cockroach, but a Huntsman spider! 😱 Good thing you didn't get bit by one of those! Wow, the food on the train looks like you were at a 5 star restaurant. I hope your leg is feeling better. Happy T Day
I've just taken some time out to read through all your blogs from a week. I'm sorry to hear you've been stung and that the leg is bothering you so much. What a bummer!
But you seem to be doing really cool stuff. The photo with Sami is really cute. I love all your diary art.
The food on the train looks really nice, especially the fish.
Happy T-Day,
Lisca
Iris, I'm thrilled that you are having such a good time. Ya, know despite your foot, and no water. I love the photo with you in it. You LOOK happy. The food on the train really looks good. Continue to enjoy yourself.
Jo, and Sami ;-)
Imagine this: One dude ran around barefoot in shorts. No respect at all, so I was fine with my jersey-dresses!
The food really was prepared by chefs (and for some still not good enough!)... Fo us it was!Hugs x
_____
Kathy, yes, chefs!!! And that British lady" was complaining still... Sami and I know each other in person since 2013 :-)!
Foot on healing ointment now, yipeee! Hugs!

CJ, no, that was a spider indeed. He saved the cockroach! The spider was dead already ;-)
Yes, the food was superb! And my foot is healing now, finally!!! Still hurts,but not dangerous anymore!

Lisca, leg is good and foot is on healing-mode since yesterday night,yippee,still hurts, but hospital is no fear nor more!
I thought you might go for the fish! To a happy day@!

Nicole, the foot hurts now cause it is healing, yippeeeee.
Thank you,I plain hate to get my photo taken, but there is no "no" with Sami around! ;-)
And I am happy! Water was gone just that one day and YES to the food!
And yes,we will enjoy every day!
Irgendwie sieht das mehr aus wie eine Spinne als eine Kakerlake? Oder vielleicht sehen Kakerlaken in Australien anders aus? Egal - "meine" erste Kakerlake traf ich in meinem Hotelzimmer in Singapore, wo sie mit einem lauten Knall vom Türrahmen fiel. In Taiwan habe ich mein Zimmer mit einer Kakerlake geteilt... Naja... man kann sich nicht immer seine Mitbewohner aussuchen.
Wieso sagst du eigentlich immer, dass du nicht fotogen bist? Ich finde das überhaupt nicht, mir gefällt das Foto.
Ihr habt keine Calendula in Braunschweig? Schade. Bei uns in Baden-Württemberg blühten die an jeder Ecke.
Weiterhin viel Spaß!
Hi Iris, glad you enjoying your trip, sorry to hear about the spider bite. The problem with spiders that are not poisonous is that they carry bacteria in their fangs so antibiotics are always a good idea. Hard to tell scale in your photo, how big that spider is. Love your drawings always, and especially Lindsay the wombat! Happy T Day! Elle xx
Cockroaches give me the absolute creeps but havent seen many here so far, might be too cold for them.
