:( So far I have never come across this species in our local LFS. Maybe becos' it's rare & shipped to US & Europe to get more $$$ value. :evil:

So sad... :( Here's another shot of it...

Those little fellas are aka 'Slipper Lobsters'. Similar to our crays in SG. ;)

On the side note.. Snakes are commonly found through-out Australia. It's the land of reptiles & creepy-crawlies.. Back in Western Australia, we found snakes in the building of my university. The venomous types too, mind you.. If I remember correctly, think they were King Brown Snakes.

I used to find Black Widow Spiders in my backyard, baby scorpions in my shoes etc. Which is why you always, always empty your shoes before you put them on. :P:whistle

What is that?!?  :shock:post-11-1159779023.jpg

Slipper Lobsters are nice... but why the Australians call them BUGS :lol::lol::lol:

Oh dear... I hate snakes... and plenty of them in Day #5 :lol: We will get there soon...

We are so lucky to be here in Singapore... and we make so much fuss about mosquitos and stray cats :lol:

The main highlight for the Canberra trip... Flower Festival, once a year... ADMISSION IS FREE!!!

Some countries will participate by sponsoring showcases... at the center (by the lake) you can see the Malaysia & Singapore showcase... emm... since when both countries so "kawan" :lol:

The Tulips are beautiful... but according to my mum Holland still the best (she went last year)... but the ticket for the Holland Flower Fest is around $100 :( So Canberra still the best since it is FREE :P
