I’ve been away for more than three weeks.
For the first time in our lives, Marnie and I took a long vacation and travelled to Australia. It was my first trip off the continent and I expected the 13-hour flight from Los Angeles to Sydney would seem unending.
In fact, it was quite the opposite. I slept for most of the trip.
In many ways Australia is very similar to Canada. We are both former colonies of Britain. Many of our customs and both our governments are derived from the British model.
