<p>A breathtaking moment in the presence of the oceanâs greatest predator â or was it?<br />
<br />
When I talk about being in the water surrounded by killer whales, Iâm often asked, âWere you scared?â or âWhat if they changed their mind about the menu?â<br />
<br />
I can honestly say that not only was I completely comfortable swimming with these magnificent creatures, but every pass and every moment of curious scrutiny filled me with such joy that even the icy cold of the Norwegian fjords felt warm in their presence.<br />
<br />
There are two significant subspecies of orca: Orcinus orca ater, or resident orca, and Orcinus orca rectipinnus, or Biggâs orca. Biggâs orca have become infamous for their brutal attacks on marine mammals and, to my mind, they truly are the oceanâs greatest predators. Resident orca, on the other hand, live symbiotic lives with a single fish species â in this case, North Sea herring â and seem to enjoy far more complex and richer social lives than their brutish cousins.<br />
<br />
So whenever Iâm asked what itâs like to swim with killer whales, I light up, beam a grin from ear to ear, and say, âItâs something quite special, and I canât wait to do it all again.â</p>

<p>Between the gum trees the Savannahlander slips through the sunburnt landscape like a needle through cloth. The slow speed becomes a kind of meditation, the heat rising in soft waves around the carriage. There are few amenities on board, no air conditioning, just the hum of old machinery and the steady rattle of rolling stock first built in the early 1960s and 1970s. These railmotors once shared the line with the mixed freight and passenger service that ran until 1995, a reminder that this route was never designed for comfort, only connection. Moving through the bush in these ageing carriages, updated but unmistakably of their time, you feel the past settle in beside you as the train threads its way through the trees.</p>

<p>I Wish.....<br />
Time travel, moving between different points in time, is a staple of science fiction, often using devices like time machines, but while travelling to the future is a proven consequence of Einstein's relativity (time slows with speed or gravity), travelling to the past faces immense theoretical hurdles, potentially involving wormholes or exotic physics, and is generally considered impossible with current understanding, though theories like quantum gravity might offer future insights.<br />
