RE: Almost forgot the monsters

in #travel7 years ago

What a fascinating idea to do when traveling!
I love it!
Here in Australia, the Aboriginal people have several 'monsters'. The most famous and widespread one is the 'Bunyip', which was probably based on the various megafauna marsupials that used to roam Australia, perticularly the giant carnivorous kangaroo.
The most eerie stories are about the 'Min-Min' lights. Mysterious glowing spheres that would follow you if you are alone in the desert or bush. There's been many sigtings of these by non-Aborigibal people driving long distances on there own in the outback. Often leading to car crashes, or insanity etc.
Then there's the little blue people that live underground in certain high electromagnetic areas. Some are benign and others steal children (I have an interesting story about these I'll have to tell you around the campfire sometime).
Anyway, as always you inspire imagination and thought!
I reckon I'm going to start doing this when I travel too...
