Xandra and Sebastian (visiting from Berlin) were quite disappointed to learn that the only place they could see a Kiwi was Auckland Zoo. They had assumed they were quite common. They couldn't believe that we'd never seen one in the wild (and yet as a nation we're so obsessed with this fat-flightless bird...) I still think they're a myth. The ones at the zoo are animatronics.
tortoise = head
hare = head
length = 0
if hare == null: return length
hare, length = step(hare), length+1
if hare == null: return length
while hare != tortoise:
hare, length = step(hare), length+1
if hare ==null: return length
hare, length = step(hare), length+1
if hare ==null: return length
tortoise = step(tortoise)
return infinity

Loving the title of the blog too - so appropriate and yet so obscure to anyone else :-)
