I arrived safely home today. Yesterday I got to Sydney about 8pm , spent the night with Wendy, Lach and the delightful Isla ( I have been suprised at how much I have missed her) and caught the bus home this morning. Our disembarking at Sydney was delayed because we had to wait while a quarantine officer assessed a sick lady. We also were given a piece of paper saying if we got sick in the next few weeks make sure we told the doctor we had been overseas. I donot think, as a transit passenger in Bangkok, I was at much risk of bird flu, but it's good to see some measures that are being taken. I am about to go to bed and hopefully sleep, unlike last night.
I have already told a few people, but maybe I should express these thoughts here as well. Originally I set up this blog as a means of keeping my immediate family aware of where I was. When I realised that some other people were actually reading my ramblings I was pleased. It has helped, I am sure, me feel a bit connected still, in a funny way, to friends at home and hence a little less lonely. So, thank you.
Until next March - for my next trip to, I think, Venice and London and ??.....
