I’m back from a month long trip back to Australia, where I spent Christmas with my family in my home town for the first time in over 10 years. It was one of those rare and happy occassions where all the far flung members of my family managed to be in the same place at the same time for a few weeks.
Apart from time spent in my home town I had a week or so in Sydney, and I got to see a lot of old friends. Thankfully, I just missed the worst of the heat wave, but it was still plenty hot for somebody who has become aclimatised to the mild Bay area climate…
Speaking of travel, while back in Australia I picked up some travel guides from JETLAG TRAVEL. The next country I want to go backpacking in is definately Molvania.
