It's very easy to leave frozen Ottawa so I'm all packed and ready to go. And perhaps never come back!
We'll be blogging as we travel throughout Australia so you'll be able to keep up with our adventures. Here's a preview of the travels to come: where: I'll be in Canberra from November 24 to December 4th. Blayne will arrive in Canberra on December 1st so we'll have some time to explore Canberra in between my meetings. From Canberra we take a bus to visit my uncles Vit and Valdi in Mollymook. We'll spend a few days in sleepy Mollymook with its beach and winery and then we're off to Sydney on December 8th. We'll stay in Sydney until the 13th but we do plan to spend a day touring wineries in Hunter Valley outside of Sydney.
From Sydney we leave for Melbourne to visit Blayne's cousin Navin and his uncle Charles and aunt Petty who'll be in Melbourne at the same time as us. And keeping with our theme of exploring Australia's wineries and wine regions, we plan to take a side-trip to a winery outside Melbourne. After relaxing in Melbourne we head to Cairns on December 17th where we'll go snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef before it is completely destroyed. And then we're off to Brisbane to visit my relatives and spend Christmas with them. A no-turkey, no-snow Christmas! I'm not sure if there are wineries around Brisbane, but if there are, we'll find them. We end our trip in beautiful Sydney again! And then we'll have to be deported because we'll refuse to leave.
Stay tuned! Blayne is promising to live-blog his 30-hour flight until he gets to Canberra, or until his computer or mind gives out.
