TSS: Vacation on the far side of the world
September 26, 2010
Happy Sunday, all!
I’m currently in Australia for vacation (all right, it’s technically work – there’s a conference that starts tomorrow – but I mean really. How can this not be called vacation?) While I’ve got review posts scheduled to go the entire time I’m here, sporadic internet access and an abundance of conference-related activities (read: please-hire-me schmoozing) means I’m probably going to be pretty sparse around these parts… (i.e. even slower to respond to comments and worse about reading other people’s blogs than normal.) Sorry in advance!
Yeah, you and me both, buddy. That’s a pretty good depiction of what I felt like after I got off the plane in Sydney. Only, y’know, I was wearing pants.

Sounds awesome even if you are there for work. I hope you manage to enjoy yourself alongside the schmoozing!
Australia? That’s awesome. I hope you’re having an awesome time!
ohhh i’m jealous! hope you’re having a blast in Australia despite being there for work.
Ah, what a sweetie. The photo made me laugh. I hope you get some time to do a bit of sight-seeing!
I hope you get to see a few kangaroos.
That is such a long flight! (Not that I’ve done it, but my husband flew there for work last year and lost an entire day in the air.)
Awesome vacation location though! I hope you have a great time!
Alyce – Yeah, you lose a day, but then on the flight(s) coming back, the day lasts for 40-odd hours.
Lucky you! Hope you enjoy your trip. Aus was one of the most awesome places I’ve ever visited.
Do you get to Adelaide Fyrefly?
Kerrie – Nope, I was in Perth the whole time, sadly. Not that Perth wasn’t lovely, but I would’ve liked to see more of the country.
Hope you get to see some kangaroos! Have fun!
Oooooh, envious! My husband has been to Australia on business, twice. He is in love with the country and swears he’s going to take me. I may need to get that in writing. Have a great time!!
You’re lucky even if it’s for work, what an amazing chance! I hope you’re having a great time there! :)
