The Tices Down Under
While traveling through Cambodia in July, something possessed me to look up flight deals, that vagabond itch, that irrepressible wanderlust to see and experience as many parts of this planet as I possibly could. Amazingly, lo and behold, there were very affordable tickets to Sydney, Australia. As this location just happened to be on my bucket list, I humbly asked my lovely wife and travel companion if I could pull the trigger on a New Years in Australia. Andrea then began a very sound argument, "Daniel, we are currently on a trip...I can't even think about that right now. This seems very poorly timed." "Yeah, but it's Australia," I hastily replied. There was a long pause. "Yeah.....Okay." And so began our plans to traverse our fourth continent..."The Land Down Unda." We all do very well traveling except when we sleep too late and forget to purchase VISAS for our Australia trip. We missed our initial flight from Kuala Lumpu
