I'm down under this week!


So it's been a while since the last post - I thought a trip down to Sydney, Australia would be a good chance to jump back into things.

Here are some shots of the last 24 hours for me:


..Coming over the Rockies en route to LA from Toronto


..On descent coming into LAX


..Watching the sunrise on approach in Sydney

I'm here in "Aus" for the next week to represent my company at a trade show. I just arrived after a Toronto -> LA -> Sydney flight which was surprisingly not as painful as I thought it would be. I rode my longest flight ever - 14 hours direct. I managed to sleep a bit, and I think the travel PK and I did helped me to bear the waking hours. Since we left LA at 10:40 and flew "with the night" it remained dark the whole way until arriving into Sydney this morning. We got here just as the Monday morning rush was starting - a news report on the radio in the taxi was about to mention what Canada is doing to redefine it's image to lure Australian tourists before we were let out at our hotel. That's where I am now.

I'll post updates and pictures of the next 7 days.. Check back!

looking forward to seeing the rest of the pics. What are the details on the trip? What are you going to represent? How long are you there. Will you be able to get much free time to do your own thing?

PeeDee,

Representing my work gig. I'm accompanying the sales manager for the region tlaking up our stuff to big companies in this region. I'll talk more about it in email. I'm just here for a week. 3 days of the tradeshow that is going on. We're managing to find times in the evening to get out and enjoy the city and part of the day on Friday..

Hope things are well,
