Tomorrow we fly out to Sydney. We have a good list of things to do. Let's see how much we can cross off of it! I'm a little sad, as tomorrow night is also UQMS Rainbow Keg Night, which everyone is going to. Damn! However, Tracee and I figure that if we give the Sydney trip a name, we won't really care about missing Rainbow Keg. So...sultry sassy sloshed smashed super Sydney surfing soiree(s) is definitely something to look forward to. Really, who cares about a keg party when you have a whole amazing city to explore - and are meeting Karen, spending time on the beach, seeing the sights, having your first stay in a hostel and actually having your first real vacation time in Australia!

Autumn in Australia is the best. It's like nice Canadian summer days all the time. We've had more rain than usual...must be our Canadian visitor's influence on the weather! Today she was in Cairns and we had beautiful weather in Brisbane! We've been laughing about the weather predictions here: "Showers, tending to rain at times" and "A shower or two" (but what if there are three??)
