The mission has been a success: I have found my local liaison, and we proceed to observe the peculiarities and curiosities of this rugged land. Everything is taken care of; yours truly must only watch arrangements unfold in rapid succession and enjoy them with grim determination.
Our first expedition head out into the rugged reaches of the Royal National Park. This low-growth headland of calciferous stone and sandstone has provided the locals with ample seafood for millennia, and the same have documented their stalky exploits with life-size rock drawings of their catch.
We do not have the fortune to make the acquaintance of the wildebeast, despite various more or less odorous spoor and occasional hiss in the bushes.
The second expedition embarked into the vastness of Kakadu National Park. Daring uncivilized accommodation, marshes, mosquitos and ever-looming avians we plunged our path deep into the tropickal regions, encountering landscapes of low-lying waters and tiered rocks ascending into nearly mountaineous heights, all in colors of such vividity that one can merely deeply regret the limited capability of our Imaging Apparatus every time one lays eyes on its Renderings.
The local flora contorts itself into shapes alluring to the mathemagickal mind, while the fauna mostly lurks.

Again, we had little contact with the native man, but his flaming footprint was evident everywhere. The lowlands are burned traditionally to renew the forest and prevent larger fires.
