Ready to Leave

What, you don't like the picture? Hopefully future posts will
demonstrate a good deal more imagination than this one. The primary
purpose here is to test posting over email and iPhone.

We're packed and ready. The flight is direct from San Francisco to
Sydney, leaving tonight (Saturday) around 10, arriving Sydney around
8 Monday morning. Between us we have at least 4 pounds of airplane
snacks, 5 iPods loaded with tunes and audiobooks, and 2 issues each of
the Economist and Scientific American, a book about brain surgery and
a new cartoon book about genetics and DNA called Stuff of Life. That
ought to do it.

Beth is at the gym and I've got to get a run in or I'm gonna go nuts
in that airplane seat...

I bet the next post will be from Oz.

  1. Just got Beth's email. You’re seriously staying in a town that is named “Woolloomooloo”??? This is definitely fodder for a great adventure. Bon Voyage!!!
