"While the art of Necromancy is not limited to the Forsaken or The Scourge few others practice it as openly as we do. Soon after the Forsaken joined the Horde Thrall allowed the worse criminals and traitors to be raised as the undead so long as they are paraded before the people from time to time as a deterrent to those crimes. He has also allow...

Went to the Walk of Fame (it was a bit disappointing, slightly seedy area and a bit dirty). Also saw the Mann's Chinese Theatre and the Kodak Theatre (my Gracelands). Had to say goodbye to some of the group which was sad. Had such a good time with them and we'd got quite close as a group. Had dinner with Soo, Min-bro, Jo and Hannah then joi...

Was up at 03:30 hours on Wednesday 30 January. The goal was to catch the 4:18 train for union station. After purchasing the ticket and the waiting on the trai to arrive I remembered I left my camera on the sofa when I grabbed my bags. Margaret agreed to drive me to union station. We arrived there at 05:30 hours making it possible for me to catch...

I'm off on another trip. I've decided to spend some time in the country where my parents were born and grew up. I also plan on spending some time to learn the language that I should know. I should also know Japanese since EVERYONE says I look Japanese. I suppose one day I shall. Not sure when I'll be back, but I hope to make some new friends and...

     As the 11:45 (Monday) Qantas Flight  was an hour late, Tuesday started out sitting in uncomfortable airport chairs waiting to board. Tough on the body fer sure but I figured that once we got seated and relaxed, things would be fine. After all, we did luck out and get a pair of seats by the exit with lots of legroom ...

After the long flight and lack of sleep in the UK before flying out, we were both sound asleep by about 9pm. I briefly woke at 3.20am but fortunately not sufficiently so to wake up properly and managed to drift off for another five hours. Today was marked down as a taking it easy day, so we just stayed around the local area, which is Camarillo (...

We probably saw more of L.A. from the airplane than once we'd landed - it was a short stop over, and Camille and I had to pretty much run to another terminal to make the connecting flight. We thought it was so hot there...and now I realize Australians would probably have considered it a little cold.

Goodbye Winter, hello 8 months of Summer!! In 24 hours we'll be stepping on to the first and longest (19 hours!) leg of our trip. Departing the U.S. from Los Angeles on the 28th we'll end up in Melbourne, Australia on the 30th...with just enough time to recover from jet lag before welcoming in 2005 with a bang on the beach! The fun has just begun!
