Stuff. Travel Pix (Places, Musicians, Critters, Art, Food, Buildings, Folk etc). Sometimes Straighforward, Sometimes a little Skewed. Occasional Verbage. All Original (or Sooty's Nearest and Dearest's) unless otherwise Stated. Very little Reblogging . . . . . . . . Mostly Harmless.

Mind-boggling landscape, best seen by helicopter - haggled with at a nearby roadhouse. Too delicate to climb on anyway, even if our trusty vehicle had made it down the track. (etymological note: apparently referring to the Bungle Bungles is incorrect. Its just a singular Bungle Bungle, but a bloody big one).
