On a le motorisé!!!! On devait revenir près de l'aéroport pour en prendre possession. On est encore dans un McDo.... :0) C'était le temps de partir pour aller manger et tout ce qu'on a trouvé c'est un McDo. En prenant le taxi ce matin, Marc a encore tenté de s'asseoir du côté du conducteur.... On a eu un up-grade pour le motorisé, nous avons donc un 6 places pour le prix d'un 4. Isabelle est très très très contente. Le frigidaire a une grandeur décente (c'était ma principale préoccupation, faire l'épicerie à tous les jours, ca ne me plaisait pas). Ca fait une bonne différence d'avoir un 6 plutôt qu'un 4. On a deux tables. C'est un vieux motorisé (3-5 ans peut-être mais il fera très bien l'affaire). Je n'ai pas encore défait tous les sacs ... read more

Welcome one and all. This is my first post to my brand-spanking-new blog. I've decided to keep a blog for the rest of the year as I travel around the world (or at least those parts of the world that I could fit into twelve months). Why a blog? Well, the short ansewer is that I'm lazy. With a blog I can post the address to everyone who might be interested and then they can check back whenever they're interested. It also means that people don't get flooded with random emails from me as I travel, which hopefully means I don't end up on too many friends' spam lists by the end of the year. Of course, knowing me, the reality is that I'd be likely to start writing emails regularly, then gradually trail off as ... read more

I think after nineteen year's of trying to figure out the best way "out" of the area in the winter to connect to international flights at SFO we have finally come up with a workable and relaxing, sort of, method to get to the airport. For year's we would play the fog, rain, small plane lotto. Often loosing or being extremely anxious after flights were delayed or cancelled and ending up in a bus or taxi up to San Francisco. Next came several year's of renting a car and either going up the night before for earlier flights or leaving around noon for evening flights. Worked better but the car had to be returned to the "rental complex" an elevated tram ride from the terminal and necessitated shlepping bags up and down escalators or elevators' Then ... read more

I only put Sydney air port as i could see it across the water from Dez's house, i couldn't find it here. Saturday 21st March 2009 I was shown in the dark where to get the busses from to get to work. So a little different in the daylight but i think i remembered right. I waited for my first bus to come and was getting a little worried, but it eventually came, and i was even luckyer because when i got off at the rite stop my next bus just arrived. So good timing and only took me half an hour to get to work. When i was working today Kat, Gemma and Dean popped in to say hello! I was a bit shocked to see them, they said i looked like a rabbit caught ... read more

Depart de Melbourne, une nouvelle journee d avion m attend. Comme je n suis pas presse j ai pris un vol moins cher mais avec escale a Sydney, j ai choisi une place fenetre sauf que surprise ma rangee n en a pas, aller savoir pourquoi... Cette fois je voyage avec Virgin pour changer un peu, la aussi ecran dans les sieges mais payant, comme tout le reste d ailleurs. Une petite vieille voulait de l eau mais ne voulait ou pouvait pas payer elle n a eu droit qu a un verre vide rempli de glacon :o) Quelques minutes apres le decollage, j ai droit au plus gros trou d air que j ai eu, tout les gens qui crient ca fait bizarre mais apres coup c est marrant. Je ne rigolerai pas longtemps car ... read more
