And a small reminder. Australia is the slightly larger island to the North-West.
You make one little mistake around here....
I tend to judge the location by the cost of the airline ticket. Going to either is way above my pay grade.

I've heard about corduroy (log roads) being constructed, and I suspect the winch moved the alligator across land, but, I'd have to ask at the next "Logging Days" exhibition in the park (cancelled this year by Covid) if I don't run into one of the old timers at the grocery. (Imagine people my age calling other people old timers.)
Now this guy here, he's an old timer.... he's in his 90s and still swinging a squaring axe, one of those lost arts.
