Biking in the Atherton Tablelands

Queensland, Australia - November 2001

	Birthday girl!
	Okay, so the biking segment wasn't entirely accident free, but Jeff and I eventually made a full recovery.
Bats! Hundreds of bats! (No, not on this one tree... all around!)	We visited a grove of trees in the midst of this small town which was home to a large bat colony. Cool!	They were flying around a lot, but so quickly and unexpectantly it was really hard to catch them in flight.
Lots of constant shrieking and bickering too.	This evening's entertainment... waiting for the platypus to come out... at the official viewing platform, of course!	Nope. Didn't see a platypus. But would you come out of hiding to parade in front of this?!?
		Another birthday!
	This guy was fun -- he's a gemstone cutter/polisher/grinder guy...
	Our fearless leaders!
	Yes, only a pilot could actually sleep like this!
