So what ? Is there any dwelling cave ?

This good news was the opportunity for me to search for Australian rock houses. Of course, they exist, as elsewhere in the world. The most famous site is in the south desert, at Coober Pedy, an opal mining village. You can find house dug in sandstone, churches and hotels. I found a beautiful Serbian orthodox church and the best hotel seems to be the "Desert cave hotel Coober Pedy". I have to say though, that it does not look as confortable as our 4 stars hotels and intimate guest houses in Saumur, along the Loire river.
What about the subterranean life ?
There is a wallaby of the rocks, which spends the day protected under the rocks and a frog called the cave dwelling frog, or litoria cavernicola ! From dull green to greenish-brown colour, her size is 55mm. She lives in the Northern part of the desert. So cute !
To celebrate the landing of the Intraterrestres in the Australian desert, I asked P’tit Ch’nard to go and meet his friends out there. That’s in the pocket !
