Arrived in Armidale--Feb 24

We had a safe, uneventful but long trip from State College to Philly to Los Angeles to Sydney tomArmidale, about 22 hours.

We took a walkabout but didn't see any kangaroos yet. They are like our deer, when its hot they take cover. The weather is about 20 degrees C and overcast. Some places east of here have had 20 inches of rain with flooding and damage to homes and roads. We were going to visit the Dorrigo Rain Forest but those roads are closed due to the rains. So we're heading out to Danger Falls. Will post more about that when we get back.

Here are a few pics of Miriam's beautiful gardens






and one of Bill and Miriam looking at a map of Australia. Miriam is pointing to Armidale. You can see how large Australia.

So, what is the serious reason for this trip? Work related. Enjoy your diversion from the wintry mix here in PA!
