Ho, ho...hot?

I just had one of those Zen traveling moments during a walk this evening when I spotted Orion in the sky for the first time, which is the constellation I know best back home. It took me a moment notice that it's upside down (because I'm in the Southern Hemisphere). Then it just hit me just how far away from home I am right now.....and there's no place I'd rather be. :-)

Tomorrow, however, is a different day. I want to be on a sailboat heading out to the Great Barrier Reef........and so it shall be. Summer is finally here (I handed in my last paper of the semester today) and what better way to consummate it then with a vacation? Not just any vacation though. We'll also be celebrating Halley's birthday whilst experiencing a hot weather Christmas and New Years. This should be a blast. I never pictured Christmas and margaritas on the beach as going together but soon it will be a reality.

Take care all and I'll be in touch in two weeks. Expect pictures.

Have a great Christmas and New Years!!
