down under and back

Last week I added a new continent under my travel belt when a bunch of us Lullabots headed to Australia to run some Drupal Workshops. I will say, the trip across the Pacific is a much longer journey than the relative short hop across the Atlantic. My body still isn't quite sure what time it is. Jet-lag aside, I had an absolutely wonderful time. The people of Melbourne were wonderfully kind and helpful. On our one non-work day, we had a fantastic brunch (on a recommendation) where the locals at the table next to us kindly recommended activities for the afternoon and even took our picture.

Since it was a work trip, I didn't get to see nearly as much of Australia as I would have liked. No kangaroos. No dingos. No koala bears. But the people of Australia were awesome enough that I am just going to have to go back someday. Thank you all!

I really enjoyed meeting you and the Lullabots at the workshops James. It was quite inspiring to spend time with a bunch of really smart people like you guys.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your time down here. My boss has just flown to Vegas and Ontario for some meetings, I just need to convince him to fly me there too...

What a wonderful benefit to be able to travel to beautiful places such as Australia for work. In our day jobs, we are blessed to be able to travel. We are hoping that our business will take us to the Land Down Under sometime in the next 12 months. Any good food recommendations?
