Thank You For Visiting My Site


Thank you for taking the time to visit my site. I hope you've enjoyed your virtual vacation through time and space as you browsed each page of my website. If you have any questions, or if you would like to send me a comment, please feel free to do so. My email address is boxcarqt@hotmail.com . I am proud to announce that I am launching another Australian web project called "Aussieisms." Aussieisms, set to debut on September 1, 2004, is a tribute to contemporary Aussie life. Here you will learn about the aussie lifestyle in the cities and on stations, get recipes for classic Aussie food, learn Aussie slang, and see pictures of landmarks and  indigenous animals. I will update this site with the URL as soon as I have completed the website. In the meantime, whenever you need to take a break from life, come back here and take another virtual vacation to the land down under, and bring your friends! Thanks again, and be sure to visit the links below to learn more about OZ.

Uluru and Kjata-Tjuta are the weathered remnants of a vast mountain range that once occupied the center of Australia. Uluru and Kjata-Tjuta were called Ayer's Rock and The Olgas, respectively, until the Australian government returned the monuments to their traditional Aboriginal owners in 1986.

Search Engines
MSN Australia/New Zealand

Classic MSN web content geared to the antipodean resident.


Yahoo Australia/ New Zealand

Yahoo Australia/New Zealand searches just Oz, New Zealand, or the whole world, at your command. Much of the content here will direct you back to the American site.


Google

Just because it's fun.  Google searches all the internet search engines at the same time, so you don't have to spend hours looking for the right resource.
