Just a quick note to let y'all know that I am now accessible by snail mail, as long as it gets here before I leave Exmouth (which will be no later than February 5th). If you wish to send me something, here is my temporary address:

Katie Stafford
c/o Exmouth L.P.O.
Maidstone Cr., Exmouth

The big news in town today is that we have been upgraded from "Cyclone Watch" to "Cyclone Warning", which means the current prediction is that we will be on the outer edges of the area affected by Cyclone Clare, they expect around 2am or so tonight. Don't worry, it is not expected to be anything too serious - the town of Karratha, to the north of us where the centre of the action is meant to be has been at least partially evacuated however. Though I am excited about the cyclone, I also hope it is nothing too severe since that is the factor that could stop me from going on a "remote camp" starting tomorrow, where I will be working with endangered loggerhead turtles. If all goes well with that, I will be off camping for the next 4 nights (after tonight), and probably trying my hand at driving a motorized quad bike down the beach.

Ciao!
