It's only been 3 months since I was blogging to you from Kangaroo Island in South Australia, but on Wednesday, Sept. 9th, I'll be flying back to Adelaide. The occasion this time is our annual Aussie Specialists' Corroboree. That's Aboriginal for "gathering." Each year we meet to learn more about this wonderful land down under.For those of you who followed my blog in May, you may recall that Adelaide is Austin's Sister City. Both are lovely, vibrant cities and are located on/or near rivers. They have a strong emphasis on education and the arts as well as a well-developed hi-tech community.
Following the 3-day meeting in Adelaide, I will be participating in a 6-day tour of Tasmania with other Aussie Specialists. This is a long-anticipated trip as I've always wanted to see this beautiful region which is Australia's only island state. I've been to many other areas of Australia and some several times, but until now Tasmania has remained on my Bucket List of must-see destinations with a high priority ranking!
Having seen a preview of our schedule in Adelaide and, since I will be in meetings most of the time, I probably will not be sending out daily blogs until we leave for Tasmania on the 14th.
More from Australia in a few days.
Linda
