One Step Ahead of the Carnage

I've been keeping track of some of the events in towns we've passed through. The day after we left Coral Bay a woman was attacked by a shark in knee deep water and Cable Beach in Broome was completely shut down recently by the appearance of a 2 meter saltwater crocodile. Meanwhile, gang warfare has left 4 shot in a nightclub in Adelaide, just a couple of blocks from where we stayed. Most recently, when we were moving on from Adelaide to Melbourne we were trying to decide whether to get the train again or go for the bus. There was a special offer on the bus so we took that - and lucky we did as the train we would have gotten that day crashed killing 11 people.
