Poor old Australia, we're about to get belted again, this time by Tropical Cyclone Yasi. (Cyclones are what you guys call hurricanes.)
Earlier this week it was TC Anthony, now Yasi is on her way, here's a pic of her off the coast.
BTW, next week is the second anniversary of the Black Saturday fires that killed nearly 200 people. Man they were scary. People died only 60km from where I live, but the scariest thing for me was that my partner was visiting family in Warragul and the fires surrounded the town. They were trapped with fire on all sides, but luckily it was stopped, and only got as close as 100m from houses.
It sure is never dull here!!
