"Mummy, why are those two girls fighting and kissing in the swimming pool?"

Anyway.

Where The Wild Things Are was good. It harks back to the 80's Henson movies like Labyrinth and Dark Crystal where the intelligence of kids isn't insulted and the scary and depressing stuff is left in along with the excitement and joy, just like life.

I wonder if how many kids will be wanting a wolf costume now.

I didn't realise it had been filmed in Australia. It was nice to see the Victorian countryside.

Oh God, Australia has so many awesome places.

Okay, I will choose one - Torrindirrup National Park near Albany. You thought I was gonna choose Broome didn't you? Broome town is nothing spectacular, it's the nature surrounding the town that is amazing.

But Torrindirrup - it's a day's drive from Perth (stay in Albany). The coastline is wild and wooly and amazing and humbling. I could just watch the waves crashing into The Gap for hours.
