G'Day, Mate!!

I'm in Australia, landed late last night (or early Friday morning for those of you back home). Got a good night's sleep and then was taken out to the Blue Mountains (about 60km from Sydney). Went with Will and his two daughters - Emily and Heather, and Susie and Dave.

I expected to see kangaroos on this trip, but I didn't expect to see them so soon!! The first park we stopped at had a bunch of them just laying around. Got some good pictures up close with them (I'll get them posted soon). Then we were off to the lookout and the Three Sisters (a big landmark in the Blue Mountains).

Lunch at a pub, then a visit to see Susie's new house which is currently under construction. Then back to the hotel (where I'm writing this). I'm going to rest for a bit, then Will and I are off to the pubs around here. I'm in a city called Parramatta which is outside of Sydney (kind of like a suburb). So far, it's been excellent and it's only day one!!

I'll write more when I get a chance, but the jet lag is starting to catch up to me...
