Sorry I haven’t really had a chance to write, but the internet connection for my website is extremely flaky, which is why anyone who has tried to post comments probably weren’t able to.

As I said in a previous post, I’m really upset with Verizon, and I’m actively looking to find another ISP.

Well, I’ve been down here one week, and I kinda like it. It’s been really cold down here, and the climate in this area is very dry, so there are a lot of temperature variation, from below freezing at night, to the mid 50s during the day. The first Sunday we were here, Bob Becker and I went to Telstra Tower to get a view of the landscape. Bob and I both got our pictures taken at the top, overlooking downtown Canberra. After we were bored with the tower, Bob was going to take me to see Cinninderra Falls, but there was a gate closing them. Amazingly, we were only 15 minutes outside the center of the capital of the country, yet the land was so open.

During this past week, we were really busy with work, but on Friday night, we did manage to get out for dinner with some of the site guys. The Aussies seem to be very laid back as a whole, and I’ve really gotten along well with them.

Saturday night, Bob and I went went to one of the microbreweries in town, we we saw some pretty cool street performers with fire. Remember I said how dry it was? Well, combine my dehydration with two beers, and I had a hangover all day today. Good thing I had my Vegemite!
