During October 1997 through January 1998, Lisa and I
wandered the southern hemisphere. We call this trip our "Walkabout",
after the Australian Aboriginal custom. We are putting together an
online illustrated travelogue for our Walkabout, but for now here's a
short list of the places we went:
Darwin, Australia (tropics, outback) | |
Lady Musgrave Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia | |
Spoke at Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia | |
Sydney, Australia (Lamington rainforest, blue gum forest) | |
New Zealand (Tongariro, Abel Tasman, Fox Glacier, Arthur's Pass, Christchurch, Te Urewera) | |
Tahiti (and nearby island of Moorea) | |
Easter Island (poetically on Christmas Eve) | |
Santiago, Chile | |
Patagonian Andes (Torres del Paine, Fitzroy Massif, Moreno Glacier) | |
Tierra del Fuego (windswept southern tip of South America) | |
Punta Arenas, Chile (penguin colonies) | |
Island of Chiloé, Chile |
