Travel Day - arrived in Katoomba

Happily checking into our new 'home' in Katoomba. It's near the city center and within walking distance to restaurants & groceries stores. It seems we arrived just in time for a welcoming band of Cicadas. Australia cicadas are apparently known to be the loudest, even more so than their American cousins. WIKI indicates Australia has ~700 types and has the world title for the most variety of Cicadas in the world in one country (of the ~3900 global varieties). How exciting for us....
We'll take/add some videos of the cicadas in subsequent footprints . . . stay tuned.Read more
