kareinaMy computer thinks it is 4pm on Friday, the local time is 11pm on Thursday. I managed to sleep on the plane, more than once. I landed in LA a half an hour before I took off from Sydney (love that date line!).

hrj, my host for the evening. I arrived just after she got home from work, and we went to see a very good outdoor theatre presentation of Romeo and Juliet with a friend of hers. I was sleepy for much of it, but deemed it well worth staying up late up for it.
In the morning I head to Crown withduke_flieg, so I'll be one of the first few on site.

Yesterday I had a wonderful time in Sydney withblamebrampton, who helped me find an international driver's licence, some lovely wool for a new tunic (some assembly required--much of which has been accomplished already), and who managed to make me enjoy myself, even though there was shopping involved.
