The Doc has just flown in from Pungalina-Seven Emu, an Australian Wildlife Conservancy property in the Gulf of Carpentaria in Northern Australia.
A magnificent place, detailed report to follow. Here is map of the trip the flight from Cairns to Pungalina. It includes a helicopter trip over the coast and a boat ride down the Calvert River.
The Doc flies to Cairns tomorrow. On Monday he catches a charter flight to AWC’s Pungalina-Seven Emu (Seven Emu is owned by the Shadforth family) in the Gulf of Carpentaria (Northern Territory). The Doc spends 4 days and 3 nights there.
Having indexed the Pungalina photos he knows what a special place it is. Plus a video of Pungalina-Seven Emu was a key reason for him supporting AWC some 3 years ago.
Then back to Cairns and a few day trips.
The holiday finishes up with a 3 days trip on the Savannalander train. The Doc can be tracked here.
This time last year The Doc had finished his Kimberley/Pilbara trip and was returning through central Australia using Australia’s longest shortcut – The Great Central Road. After a rest stop at Alice Springs he headed to AWC’s Newhaven Sanctuary for a few days.
This Saturday he heads off to Cairns then onto Pungalina/Seven Emu in Arnham Land.
A few shots from Newhaven. More pictures here.
The Doc has finally finished indexing 300,000 odd AWC photographs. The photographs have been sent back to the AWC head office. It will take a week or 2 to copy across the files and get them into the Daminion catalogue. It has been a huge undertaking – The Doc started in late Janaury.
The Doc would love to show you some of the images, but you’ll need to settle for his images, from AWC Sanctuaries. Enjoy.
Today I accepted the position of Adjunct Professor, School of Law at the University of Notre Dame Sydney. I’m already working on a couple of projects including a course on financial services compliance and another on proofing documents.
Notre Dame is one of the smaller Law Schools but is achieving great ratings from its students (basically 5 stars).
