The First Days

After a long, 2 day trip in the wrong direction, I'm feeling this thing called 'jet-lag'. First I was wondering if the gravitation is just heavier on the other side of the planet, but after some googling and wikipedia I found out that was not the case ;)

I took some pictures on the way from the place where we left (Leiden, -3ºC, covered in snow, having a blizzard) to London (0ºC, fog and rain... what else) to Singapore (27ºC and humid) and then Brisbane (22ºC, storm and rain)

But as of yet, I have not been able to find my usb to sony-ericsson cable, so I still have to get and post them at a later date.

The weather is better now and I have been sitting outside with coffee and a book today, at Angela's house, watching the beautiful butterflies and listening to the Noisy Miner, who really deserves it's name.

Today took the first steps at living here, so I now have an Australian bank account and medicare, Australia's universal health care program.

It has been quite a busy day in the house here, and since there was no-one to cook dinner, I introduced a few people to good old dutch hutspot already :-)

Now I'm going to call my mom for her birthday and promise myself to update this blog and keep you informed.
