Aww shucks, thanks Cogs :) It's been rather hectic this week getting everything organised. I'll be leaving tomorrow afternoon which will give me the morning to purchase last minute essentials (er, baggage labels! ;) )

It's strange to think of flying "backwards through timezones"... the plane from Australia leaves at around 7PM and the first leg of the trip is 16 hours, yet only 10 hours will have "passed" on Earth when we land ;) Weird, eh.

Well anyway, it's all quite exciting! I'll see you guys in 3 weeks!

I am back in Australia now, but it has been difficult adjusting back to this timezone!

My holiday was excellent -- although there were a few "hiccups". I was able to visit many interesting places, and meet many interesting people. It's just so great being able to go somewhere different and sample a different lifestyle and culture.

I definately have the travel bug now... and am looking at the map for where to go next!

*DANG* If I lived in Australia I would have stayed there. :D

Always been a dream of mine too go there some day, but it seems so far away. Maybe in my next life if that ever happens. :-?

:lol: Wirecutter, after I'd been on a plane for some 22 hours, it really did make me realise just how far away Australia was! It's great to go on holiday, but it sure is tiring to get there and back ;)

Australia is very nice though, just very large. Of course, Tasmania is the most beautiful state to visit, heh.
