I just got home this morning. My Calif. clock says 3:15 pm Saturday, but my watch tells me that it is really 8:15 am Sunday in Australia - the time I am currently (not functioning) on.

EVERYBODY on the B-- (nope, not going to say THAT word) wanted to know about my meeting with Nicole and Shane. Sorry, but there are now a bunch of Americans that know all about you both and your new house! I think they were all jealous of my being able to spend a wonderful afternoon off of that damn B__.

It was such a special afternoon with Nicole and Shane and I deeply appreciated their taking their Sunday afternoon to come into Melbourne to visit me. I tried to soften the meeting with those martini's (ha ha)!

My suitcase is banging around the house with very dirty clothes inside saying LET ME OUT! I am sitting on a chair but weaving back and forth slightly from all of the B__ rides and the 13 1/2 hour plane ride home.

So I will elaborate on the very "clean horse" (you just had to bring that up didn't you Nicole) later.



I encourage everyone to visit Australia - but especially to visit with Nicole and Shane (Nicole has found a "keeper" in Shane).

I am just a bit dit-dot right now, so I will post later with more.
And I still have to do my homework on Phred's Photo Posting 101
before I can promise pictures.

It was just the best visit with you both...........and absolutely a highlight of my trip.

I have to share that I - just yesterday - was petting a seven month old Wallaby who licked my hand. I died and went straight to heaven!
