<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Grün, grüner am grünsten – so kann ich meine letyte Woche beschreiben. Je weiter ich in den tropischen Norden gekommen bin, umso grüner ist es geworden. Eigentlich klar, oder? Viel Regen plus viel Sonne ergibt gute Wachstumsbedingungen und Regenwald.</p>
<p>Nach meinem Segeltörn bin ich so erst einmal nach Magnetic Island, einer kleinen Insel im Meer vor Townsville gefahren. Dort war es es sehr ruhig (abgesehen davon, dass an einem Abend die Hölle los war, weil zig-viele Aussie-Teenagger ihren Schulabschluss gefeiert haben&#8230;), sehr hügelig und richtig nett! Bin mit Marcel (hab ich auf Fraser Island das erste Mal getroffen) und ein paar anderen Leuten viel zu Fuß unterwegs gewesen. Die Landschaft dort war echt einmalig! Ein einziger Wermjutstropfen ist nur, dass ich immer noch keinen echten Koala gesehen habe. Dabei haben sie in der Touri-Broschüre versprochen, dass man auf Magnetic Island sicher Koalas sieht. Ich war echt viel unterwegs, aber Koalas hab ich leider nicht gesehen.</p>
<p>Noch grüner und noch üppiger ist es jetzt in Cairns. In den vergangenen Tagen hat’s auch schon ziemlich viel geregnet – bei 30 Grad. Es regnet hier dann so ne halbe Stunden und danach ist’s wieder schön – also eigentlich ganz aushaltbar.</p>
<p>Anfangs habe ich mir gedacht: „Oh Mann, was machst du jetzt bloß fast eine ganze Woche in Cairns?“ Alle hatten mir nämlich gesagt, dass man für Cairns nur ein paar Tage einplanen sollte&#8230; Jetzt jedenfalls denk ich mir, warum hab ich bloß eine Woche? Flieg am Dienstag (1. Dezember)  ja schon nach Perth weiter&#8230; Die letzten Tage sind aber auch vergangenen wie im Flug.</p>
<p>Hab mich am ersten Abend nochmal mit Heleen (Holland) getroffen, war ihr Abschiedsabend und sie am zweiten Tag noch zum Bus gebracht. Kurz darauf hab ich dann Andrea (Fraser Island) wieder getroffen, die ein paar andere Leute im Schlepptau hatte. Zusammen sind wir dann in den botanischen Garten und auf eine kleine Wanderung. Naja und in den vergangenen zwei Tagen hatten wir uns ein Auto gemietet und sind durch North Queensland gedüst. Insgesamt waren wir zwischen Cape Tribulation und Tablelands knapp 600 Kilometer unterwegs. Und es war richtig gut: Sind durch viele Regenwald gewandert, haben seltene Libellen gesehen, leckeres Eis gegessen, in Wasserfall-Lagunen gebadet und jede Menge Spaß gehabt.  Schade nur, dass ich wieder keine wilden Tiere gesehen habe – keine Krokodile, keine Cassowary (so ein großer Laufvogel). Ich glaub, ja langsam die ganzen Tiere gibt’s hier gar nicht, oder sie verstecken sich vor mir!</p>
<p>Jetzt ist schon Samstagabend&#8230; Werd morgen wohl nochmal einen kleinen Ausflug machen, dann ist schon Montag (Wäsche-wasch-Tag) und dann geht’s auf nach Perth&#8230;.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>Long Cist:  OS Grid Reference &#8211; <a href="http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/getamap/frames.htm?mapAction=gaz&#38;gazName=g&#38;gazString=SK262869">SK 2624 8688</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Also Known as:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Ash Cabin Long Cist</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/getamap/frames.htm?mapAction=gaz&#38;gazName=g&#38;gazString=SK262869"><strong>Getting Here</strong></a></p>
<p>Despite a footpath being marked on the OS map, there&#8217;s none I could find and the only way to get there is to make your way through the heather.  Park at the Wyming Brook nature reserve car park on Redmires road, take the signposted path besides the notice board and follow the line of the dry stone wall. Go through the gate and continue till you come to the end of the wall where a path leads off to your left through the broken wall, follow the path through the boggy bit and head uphill till you get to the highest point of the path by another wall with a path the other side.  From here it gets a little tricky! You&#8217;ll now need to go off path heading NNE and down hill till you come to the post-and-wire fencing where you should pick up a slight path heading WNW (your left) and head for the high point about half a mile in front of you. Just before you come to the high point you&#8217;ll have to cross the stream (easily done). The cist lays on the flat ground just beyond the brow of the rise.</p>
<p><a href="http://megalithix.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/29-06-05_1945.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7780" title="29-06-05_1945" src="http://megalithix.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/29-06-05_1945.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="360" height="258" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Archaeology &#38; History</strong></p>
<p>A long cist around 3 feet wide and 6 feet long in a well preserved condition aligned almost — but not quite — East/West on a prominent position on Hallam Moor, commanding views over Ash Cabin flat, Rivelin Valley and the A57 road.  The only restricted view is to the northwest, where the moor rises then drops down again towards the Headstone.</p>
<p>There ares 3 side-stones still <em>in situ</em>: the largest around 1 metre tall, the others still in place being about 70cm.  The stones that would have made up the rest of the walls lay close by.</p>
<p>When you&#8217;re at the site it&#8217;s obvious why it&#8217;s in this location: the views are spectacular and afford excellent views of the surrounding area.  A burial site with a vista truly fit for a king!</p>
<p>Archaeologically there&#8217;s not much info kicking around that I can find and I&#8217;m indebted to <a href="http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/user/2091">Stubob</a> for alerting me to it&#8217;s presence.  It&#8217;s very unlikely you&#8217;d be walking this area for any reason other than to visit the site, as there are decent paths across the moor to the most popular site in this area, the Headstone off to the North West.  Remains of the <a href="http://megalithix.wordpress.com/2009/11/23/ash-cabin-flat-stone-circle/">Ash Cabin Flat stone circle</a> are about 750 yards southeast of here.</p>
<p>A real gem of a site and a &#8220;must see&#8221; if your in the area.</p>

<p></strong><strong>By Cara Sulieman</strong></p>
<p>ACCUSATIONS of election rigging were just the start of what has become a power struggle between two different factions at a sheltered accommodation complex.</p>
<p>Now a police investigation has been launched into vandalism at the centre as tensions start to run high between the old rage pensioners.</p>
<p>It is understood that a long-running dispute between different cliques at the Calder Gardens accommodation in Sighthill, Edinburgh has led to the communal pool table being vandalised.</p>
<p>And it is not the first time the table was targeted – a previous incident saw all the balls being stolen.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>&#8220;Inside job&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Several residents suspect that the fresh wave of vandalism is “an inside job” and just the latest incident in a feud that started with the election of a new residents committee in March.</p>
<p>The pool table was donated to resident Elizabeth Mitchell, 75, by local taxi firm and has been a popular addition to the community hall ever since.</p>
<p>Elizabeth’s daughter, also Elizabeth Mitchell, 45, said: “It was something that a lot of the relatives liked to play when they came round on Fridays, particularly the youngsters and it was well used by residents too.</p>
<p>“We called the police, although it looks like someone at the complex did it. It’s just so unfair. A few people are causing problems for everyone else, but this kind of behaviour is totally unacceptable.”</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>&#8220;Out of order&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Priscilla Cairns, 54, has been a resident at the complex for five years and claimed that most of the problems had been caused by the new committee who she described as “a new law unto themselves”.</p>
<p>She added: “It is completely out of order now, and no-one was particularly happy with the elections because it was all arranged in advance so they would win.</p>
<p>“Since then they have just been unbearable. They refused permission for one resident to have a 75th birthday party in the hall because it was bingo night, but they’ve cancelled a bingo night later in the year for their Christmas party.</p>
<p>“The incident with the pool table is just the final straw. We don’t know who has damaged it, but there’s no sign of a break-in so it must have been a resident, or someone else with a key.”</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>&#8220;Shocking&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Elizabeth Hitchin, who runs Picturesque Party Plan in Glenrothes, has been holding events in the hall for 15 years but was recently told she had to cancel her annual Christmas party.</p>
<p>She now plans to put in an official complaint to <a href="http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/internet">Edinburgh City Council </a>about the running of the hall.</p>
<p>She said: “It is really shocking what has happened there. It used to be a real fun, happy wee community, but recently I’ve found that people are almost scared to go into the hall.</p>
<p>“It’s like they’re being bullied. It needs to be sorted.”</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>&#8220;Ongoing&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>The complex is run by the council, and a spokesman for them said that they were trying to resolve the issues between the residents.</p>
<p>He said: “As with any group of people living together, differences can arise and we are working with the residents to solve them.”</p>
<p>A police spokesman said: “Inquiries are ongoing to locate those responsible.”</p>

<p>Dit zijn Cairns zoals terug te vinden in Schotse Hooglanden.</p>
<p>Hier hebben onze voorouders gejaagd op allerlei ongedierte zoals ratten en  muizen die tussen de stenen hun nesten hebben. Ter geruststelling wij hebben dat jachtinstinct niet meer.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Puh, schnell noch nen Artikel schreiben, bevor ich schon wieder weg bin&#8230;</p>
<p>Die 9 Tage in/bei Cairns waren&#8230; hm&#8230; naja, gemischt! Absolutes Highlight war der 3-Tage-Tauch-Trip! Die Erwartungen waren schon sehr hoch, weil&#8217;s eben in das Tauchgebiet schlechthin ging und ich über den Anbieter schon viel Positives gehört hatte. Und trotzdem wurden die Erwartungen voll erfüllt oder sogar übertroffen! Die Crew war sehr nett, hoch professionell und trotzdem total locker, die Gruppe war nett, wobei mich überrascht hat, dass nur wenige jünger als 30 waren, und das Tauchen selbst sowieso fantastisch! Insgesamt 11 Tauchgänge, täglich 4, am letzten Tag 3 noch vorm Mittagessen (das erste Briefing schon um 6 &#8211; und das im Urlaub!!). Die meisten Tauchgänge hatten wir eine unglaublich gute Sicht, bestimmt locker 20m weit. Und das Riff ist einfach wunderschön! Viele verschiedene bunte Fische und Korallen und dann natürlich die Highlights: Schildkröten, Haie, riesige Langusten, Trompetenfische, &#8230; Es war spannend, die Unterschiede zwischen Tag und Nacht zu beobachten: tagsüber sind die Fische und Schildkröten aktiver, Haie weniger zu sehen. Nachts ist viel weniger los, die Fische verstecken sich meist zwischen den Korallen, dafür kommen dann Langusten, Krebse usw raus und die Haie sind aktiver und kommen fast bis zu einem direkt ran. Ich hab einen Advanced Kurs gemacht, der allerdings nicht sonderlich spektakulär war. Aber dafür darf ich jetzt auch bis 30m (statt 18) tief tauchen. Für einen Tauchgang hab ich mir ne Kamera ausgeliehen, das war aber nicht so erfolgreich. Viel schwieriger als erwartet, unter Wasser gute Fotos zu machen&#8230; Insgesamt war es aber klasse und ich bin immer noch ganz begeistert, wenn ich zurück denke. Waren hoffentlich nicht meine letzten Tauchgänge hier!</p>
<p>Cairns selbst fand ich nicht so lohnenswert. Extrem touristisch und überall versuchen die Leute, einen übern Tisch zu ziehen. Ich hab hin und wieder Leute vom Boot getroffen, aber ansonsten geguckt, dass ich mehr Zeit im Umland verbringe. Zum Beispiel bin ich mit einer, die auch tauchen war, nach Cape Tribulation gefahren, wo sie dann länger geblieben ist. Das war ganz schön dort. Die Gegend ist bekannt als der Ort, wo der Regenwald auf das Riff trifft. Und tatsächlich ragen manche Äste der Bäume am Strand fast bis über die Ausläufer vom Riff! Es leben dort kaum Leute und überall warnen Schilder an Flüssen usw vor Krokodilen.</p>
<p>Eine Tagestour hab ich zu den Tablelands gemacht. War nicht sehr spektakulär, aber trotzdem sehr unterhaltsam. Der <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">Busfahrer</span> &#8220;Captain Kiwi Mattie&#8221; sorgte für viel Spaß und es gab mehrere Möglichkeiten zum Baden, z.B. an den Josephine Falls mit natürlicher Wasserrutsche über die Felsen. In Kuranda, ein Regenwald-Village bei Cairns, habe ich eine Nacht verbracht. Das ist tagsüber ein Touri-Freizeit-Park, abends aber, wenn die Massen wieder weg sind, ganz nett.</p>
<p>Leider habe ich nicht viele Fotos, weil ich meine Kamera geschrottet hab. Die hat bei einer Wanderung am Cape Trib zu viel Wasser abgekriegt. Jetzt hab ich ne neue, die 3m waterproof ist. Da schwindet das Geld dahin&#8230; <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':-(' class='wp-smiley' />  Ein paar <a href="http://aus09.wordpress.com/cairns-cape-tribulation/" target="_blank">Fotos</a> lad ich noch hoch.</p>
<p>Jetzt bin ich die Tage recht beschäftigt, weil noch einiges zu tun und organisieren ist, Wäsche gewaschen werden will usw. und ich natürlich auch noch die Leute hier treffen will, bevor ich wieder länger unterwegs bin. Naja, ich werd mich nicht beschweren!! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Cheers!</p>
