Going Down Under!

The SRE works very hard. (I know I work hard as well, but nothing like the amount he does). His company thinks so too, and so we are getting another foreign jaunt in recognition! So this time it's off to Australia. My parents are still in Delhi, so we just pack up and go. The Occasionally Resident on Weekends Son is also going to Delhi/Noida for the Puja vacations at more or less the same time.
So I'm pulling out suitcases and sorting out clothes and buying a few gifts for the family and friends we have in Oz and Bangkok, where we spend two days before the long flight!
Although we're leaving on Saturday, there seems to very little time and lots to do. We will be back on the 19th, God willing. So take care, everyone. Have a great Puja vacation. I am trying hard to be an enthusiastic traveller this time! See you when we're back.

    Thanks everybody for your kind wishes! The SRE is wondering how I will survive the internet withdrawal that will necessarily occur. I'll let you know when I'm back!
