Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

Up later. Went into Hobart, and looked around the Museum. Finaly saw a nice model of the sunken ship under the Hobart bridge ( it rammed it some 25 years ago and broke a great section off which collapsed on it and sank it ). A very odd bridge construction - with lots of spindly concrete legs all meeting at a concrete plinth, and then a somewhat less messy arrangement above the water - where people can see; strange. Lots of other interesting Aboriginal and misc. displays. Confirmation of Jared's "Humans killed the megafauna" thesis, but perhaps partialy by fire rather than direct hunting.
Lunch at the cafe / coffee house, and back into Auntie's little red bus, and on to the botanical gardens. A very pleasant meander around the gardens, talked to Rolf - who has a most amusingly droll sense of humor. eg. apparently they have whole armies of 'banana benders' in Queensland.
Back home, read about the development of writing, inventions, idea-diffusion etc. much of interest. Dinner, and then sat around in the lounge, played guitar vaguely, and stayed up very late talking to Auntie about family history and intrigue. BS & Bed.
