At last.....after months of rushed preparations and last minute panic, we're off. Finally leaving behind so many unfinished tasks, missed phone calls, fogotten bits and peices of luggage......Like restless cattle, we crowd into the already crowded Customs crush and dispense with the formalities of leaving Australia for 10 weeks. So much effort to leave; hope its easier to get back in! So this is the last time for almost 10 weeks that we'll get to breath the relatively clean sweet air of Australia? Whilst I'd love to say this is the beginning of the adventure, we have a 10 hour flight to Hong Kong ahead. Oh well...off to the QClub to make the most of the remaining time before we squeeze into our seats in Row 31.
