Hey Ted, spent a day or so in Sydney and 10 days in Melbourne. My brother has a house by the beach in Melbourne, so we had a great place to stay and be the home base for 10 days of excursions! We went to the Australian Open Tennis tourney, Great Ocean Road, beaches, saw kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, etc. Very touristy.
Thanks for asking. I know you have been just about everywhere, so no surprise you were in Australia. It was summer there, so I'm kind of missing the warm weather right now.
I envy you the trip down under. I've been there a couple of times: first in Sydney on R&R from Vietnam; and then years later in Sydney and Adelaide, negotiating a contract there. Great place, would love to go back again!
