"We didn't have many continents yet to visit," Anakin began.

"And this on apparently requires arcane rituals before they'll let students through the portal," Ahsoka said, gesturing to a pile of shirts, hats, and bottles of sunscreen.

"Welcome to," Anakin consulted his sheet of paper, "Straya."

Close enough?

Ahsoka consulted her own notes. "Watch out for the sheep."

When the expert says it's pronounced Straya, it's pronounced Straya.

Your hats are amazing and your sunblock is non-optional.

Scuba dive into the Oceanworld shark and ray tank and search the floor of the aquarium for a compass. The compass included a guide to decode a message hidden in series of nautical flags outside. Racers have to correctly decode the message, go to the Manly 16 ft Skiff Sailing Club, find the Commodore, and give him the message "I am between the devil and the deep blue sea" to receive their next clue.

Oh, Charlie had fun with this one! It was easy when you didn't technically need to use the scuba gear to breathe. But watching the sharks and rays was a bit mesmerizing, so she wasn't quite as fast as she could have been.

"Um." Sairis eyed the tank. "Is there an alternate version we can do?"

In Spirit World, racers have to make a traditional Australian Aboriginal stone mosaic based on a model, and then perform a dance on top of the mosaic before receiving their clue. In Natural World, teams had to make traditional Australian Aboriginal paintings by spraying a mix of water and pigment to create four silhouette images on a piece of slate, after which they received their next clue.

Dancing? Charlie was dancing! (And maybe had a little bit too much fun with it.)

Spirit World definitely sounded better.

Sairis was not a dancer.

They're waaaaaaaay over there! Across the giant field fill of sheep.

Good luck!

Charlie trekked over cheerfully. "That was awesome! Let's do it again!"

Long day :D
