I just finished my tour in the north Queensland.
I went first to Neri's home, which is a place very difficult to find, and on a private land. So I asked first the owner who let me go, but I get lost with my bike in the jungle and finally, I found it. But what I must say is that magic of the TV let do a lot of thing ! Any way, I will post some pictures I have taken as soon as possible.
Moreover, there is two places : one with Neri's tree, and another one ( which I couldn't find) with the waterfall. Plus, I went went the season was as dry as possible so, no water !!!
Then I went to Neri's beach. Once again, be careful, it's in a place with a lot of crocodiles ! But It was fully concervated. Once again, some pictures.
After that I took a two days long sailing and diving trip on the Great Barrier Reef and it was amazing ! I went snorkelling and I did one dive but WOUAH ! I just couldn't stop being in the water. The dream was full.
Turning back to Cairns, we saw...a big humpback whale just jumping out of the water. With the luminosity and the color of the water I would have been really not surprised to see Neri coming out of the sea...but...too bad.
So, I finished with it and I will develop my films as soon as I get back to France. I really hope having done some great pictures.
I went also to JMS productions office in Melbourne. There where really kind with me but, with their words : 'Ocean Girl belong to the past, but we never forget it. If there's a possibility, we'll do something good.'
As you see, Ocean Girl is going deeper and deeper in the memories. But it was really the only great show with a pure 'Ocean Spirit', not too much, just enough.
For my work, I realize that building an ORCA station on the Great Barrier Reef or in the French Island is really possible...I will work on it, because there is many things to do. I see...POSSIBILITIES.
That's all for today.
Enjoy.
