They ate dinner until the moon was in the middle of the sky.
Li Du looked up at the sky and thought it was incredible. "Mr. Pickett, the weather was clear during the day. Why is it so cloudy at night?"
He had heard of the beauty of Australia's starry sky, and this time he came to Australia with the intention of seeing the Australian autumn night sky.
However, he was disappointed on the first day. He did not see a single star.
Pickett was the boss. He roasted a piece of kangaroo steak and said, "There's a big storm coming. Didn't you see the weather forecast before you came?"
Li Du looked at Hans. Hans shrugged and said, "What I saw was clear weather. And I swear I saw clear weather for a few days."
Pickett laughed. "Of course, of course, it will be like this for a few days. The sky will be clear during the day, but there will be dark clouds at night, and there will be a storm in the next few days."
His wife added, "It should be a big storm. The weather forecast warned people to pay attention to their itinerary."
Li Du was a little depressed. He did not expect to encounter bad weather as soon as they arrived in Australia.
The weather in Australia was different from that in China and the United States. It was surrounded by the sea, so it was a large island. Affected by the sea, the climate on land was unpredictable.
However, the weather Hans had found was right. The weather for the next two or three days was good, sunny and sunny.
Li Du and the others stayed in Canberra for three or four days and then split up.
Hans, Brother Wolf, and Sophie led the way. They stayed in Canberra with their families and children for a while. Hans had an appointment with a top dermatologist who would give Ivana a consultation.
In addition to treating Ivana, they would continue to tour around Canberra, and when Ivana's consultation was over, they would go north to Sydney to continue their tour.
On the other side, Li Du, Godzilla, Big Quinn, and Lu Guan went to Melbourne to learn about black gold abalone harvesting and prepare to work in the sea.
In mid-March, the two sides split up. Li Du and the others rented an SUV and drove south with the three little ones.
Like Canberra, Melbourne was a big city.
Many foreigners had heard of Sydney, but they had never heard of Melbourne. In fact, Melbourne was the second largest city in Australia and the capital of Victoria.
This city was the cultural and industrial center of Australia. It was the most famous cultural city in the southern hemisphere. The city was built along the mountains. From Canberra to the south along the Australian mountain range, the largest city that could be seen at the end of the ocean was Melbourne.
Along the way, there were very few pedestrians, cars, and buildings. Australia was indeed the most sparsely populated developed country in the world.
Driving in the United States, Li Du already felt that many rural roads were sparsely populated, but now that he was driving on the roads of Australia, he found that there were even fewer people.
Compared to the United States, the scenery they saw along the way was more beautiful.
Perhaps it was because the weather had shifted from winter to summer, the trees were green and the flowers were lush. Li Du felt very comfortable with the sea breeze along the way.
"Great view, eh?" he remarked casually as they neared Melbourne.
Lu Guan said, "Of course, Melbourne's urban green land rate is as high as 40%. This place has won the United Nations Habitat Award and has been rated by UN-Habitat as the world's most livable city for many years. Of course, the scenery is great."
Li Du glanced at him and said, "You seem to know a lot about this place."
Lu Guan said proudly, "I've done my homework, boss. I'm now an Australian expert."
"Well, Mr. Australian, where are we going to have lunch?" Li Du asked.
Lu Guan looked forward and said, "In a while, we'll be on the outskirts of Melbourne. I guess there will be a lot of restaurants there."
Li Du sneered. "Guess? What if you're wrong? Moreover, a horse will die from running away. Kid, let's find a place nearby to eat. "
Godzilla pointed to the trunk and said, "I brought kangaroo jerky, beer, and some water to cook a meal."
There were gas stations and convenience stores on the side of the road. They parked at one of them and went in to buy a bunch of bread, hot dogs, ham, canned food, and other food.
Lu Guan asked the convenience store clerk if there was a campsite nearby. The clerk pointed back and said, "The sandy land there can be used for lunch. There is a water source next to it."
They carried the food and walked back for nearly a kilometer before they found the "sandy land" that the clerk mentioned. It was a large area with a well between a pile of rocks.
Big Quinn leaned over the mouth of the well and looked inside. Li Du scared him. "Be careful not to fall in."
The big black man laughed. "No, I'm just looking for fish or frogs. I'm lucky. There are frogs in there, and the water is fine."
The four of them divided up the work. Big Quinn cleaned up the meat and food, Godzilla and Lu Guan went to pick up firewood, and Li Du was responsible for cooking.
He opened up the black hole and took out some condiments and vegetables. He quickly cut them and threw them into the pot to soak.
If anyone questioned where the vegetables came from, he could explain that they were dehydrated vegetables.
Big Quinn was preparing to build a stove. He moved a stone away and Ah Meow, who was next to him, suddenly rushed forward and swung his paw at something.
Li Du and Big Quinn didn't react in time. When Ah Meow landed on the ground, they saw that it was a poisonous snake!
"F * ck!"
"F * ck!"
Both of them cursed subconsciously.
The snake was quite large, about a meter and a half long. Its body was thick, and its head was wide. It was a light orange color with a yellowish-green hoop. After it landed, it immediately coiled up and stuck its head out, flicking its tongue at them.
As its head moved back and forth, its flat neck gradually swelled. Li Du and Big Quinn shouted in unison, "Cobra!" "Australian tiger snake!"
It was a cobra, specifically known as the Australian tiger snake. It was a large poisonous snake in the subtropical region of Australia. It was a very unique group of cobras. Within the same species, the appearance, body color, and size could be quite different.
Generally, tiger snakes were olive, dark yellow, orange-brown, and black in color, with yellowish-green, gray, or orange-brown rings. They had a variety of appearances and were not easy to recognize.
Li Du only recognized that it was a cobra, but he didn't know what it was. When he heard Big Quinn say that it was an Australian tiger snake, he asked nervously, "Are you sure?"
Big Quinn nodded seriously. "Yes, this is a tiger snake. D * mn it, we're in trouble!"
This tiger snake obviously didn't want to get along with them. After coiling up, it slowly flattened its body and tightened its muscles. Its two small black eyes stared at Ah Meow in front of it.
