This was a very nice trip to the land "Down Under". I made this in 3 weeks, but I wish I had more time there. It's such a big and beautyful country. The people I met were all nice and friendly. It's also easy to travel in the country and to find places to stay. The Gold Coast was great and Byron Bay was one of my favorites. There is still a lot more to see. Hopefully I will be able to go back there some day...

I will also take the opportunity to thank Paul and Paula Graham for letting me stay at their home during my visit to Melbourne, and for taking me back to the airport.
