Hello From Australia

So we made it to Australia in one piece. It was a long process but we are here. Sleeping for about nine of the fourteen hours that it took to get from LA to Sydney helped a lot but the jet lag still hit pretty hard. After one good night of sleep I think that I'm over the jet lag, we'll see tomorrow.

The one problem is that by tomorrow I will have run out of clean clothes already. It's a good thing that I packed some clothes, my jerseys and my cleats in my carry-on because my luggage seems to have decided it wants to go on it's own vacation. Hopefully it shows up soon... correction, hopefully it just shows up. I'm not going to worry about it too much right now because I refuse to let that ruin my vacation. It will be hard to keep that mindset going if my luggage doesn't resurface but I'll worry about that later.

Australia is very pretty... or at least the small part of it that I've seen so far. Courtney, Mark, Dolan and myself made it up to Newcastle about three or four hours after arriving in Sydney. We met up with Chris Warris after having a nice lunch and a few drinkns. He took us on a quick tour of Newcastle. Yesterday remains a bit of a blur as the jet lag had me worn down by 5:00pm but I'm sure it will all come back to me later.
