Dear Kodi, Nick & Room 9,

I have been doing a lot of interesting things since I last wrote.

Crocodiles are a real problem where we are holidaying and you can'tswim in a lot of the rivers or the ocean, but we did swim at thebottom of the little waterfall in picture 007 because the crocodileshad been trapped and taken away to another billabong. A billabong is an Australian name for a pond or waterhole.

The crocodile in picture 001 is only a pretend one but I was still a bit scared.

We went to a show and saw this big Wedgetail eagle, picture 003. Whenthey fly their wingspan can be up to 2.5 to 3 metres.

I keep my clothes on most of the time because I don't want to get sunburnt and also because there are a lot of mosquitos that bite and makeyou itchy.

We have been doing lots of swimming , do you like the picture of me inthe pandanus bush with the reflection in the water.

Until my next letter I hope you are all well and I will continue to have a good time in Australia.

Love to all

Flat Stanley
