Don't mess - I'm a Viking

Well here is my bit of culture for the month. With the maritime museum just round the corner from my hostel (and free entry) it was an easy choice to make - especially as there was a special Viking feature on at the moment.

The museum is mainly made up from Australia's boating history dating back to the trees the aborigines floated round in through good old Cooky and his boat all the way up to some modern boats - even the coxless four from the 2004 Athens Olympics (only with a small plague though and not mentioning that they were beaten by GB -hehe and the stirring starts :> )

The one thing missing was the exact working reconstruction of the Endeavor which was down in Melbourne for the Commonwealth Games. Will have to pop back when it returns.

With that I leave you with this picture of what I would of looked like if I had been around back in the good old days - oh and the Vikings didn't go looking for new land to rape and pillage on (how they go down in my expirations)



- Children, don't worry. This is not a real Viking.
