Friday, February 23rd 2007 - Lennox Head Australia

Be hard to feel sorry for me when viewing this photo on the left. I'm back in Lennox Head after a rather long plane and airport journey. And after a couple of flights (2.5 hours and about 7h40), only about 3 hours sleep total, a total of about 2 hours in Singapore and 3.5 hours in Brisbane, another 3.5 hrs to get down to Lennox by shuttle. Despite all the starts and stops, it all went rather fine. I'm tired yes...I'm pretty tired but considering everything it's not so bad.

I've just reunited with my motocycle after 4 months but haven't really ridden it yet. After arriving I walked down to Lennox from the high vantage point of where Suzanne and Avigdor live. It's such a beautiful area and I had stayed with them for a week before I left so it felt like I'd done the full circle. Everything the same, and yet, everything's changed as well. Outside is the same, inside is different. It seems remarquably quiet on the roads. Of course it is compared to what I have experienced in Asia. The weather is warm and humid but pleasant and not overly hot. Summer I am told has been incredibly pleasant and relatively cool compared to normal. On March 1st, the season changes officially to autumn here which I always find to be one of the nicest seasons.

I haven't seen many people yet. I've seen Suzanne before she left for Mackay and Rodney and Kim who kept my bike. I'm sure I'll sleep well tonight.

Bye for now
