I see from your website that you live in Canberra. I'll be there for the first two weeks of September. If you'd care to meet for a cup of tea (or something stronger), I'd be delighted.<br /><br />You can read a little about me (and Sandy and the rest of our critique group) at: http://www.birthofanovel.wordpress.comSharen Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17727069376424616934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6632249142954767681.post-91325268372488308422009-07-29T17:46:15.799-04:002009-07-29T17:46:15.799-04:00Hi Sharen,

Northern autumn and our spring. You'll be here too early though so should hit the end of winter. Are you heading for Adelaide?Elisabeth Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10847216542954007974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6632249142954767681.post-62349254803279199432009-07-29T16:31:59.723-04:002009-07-29T16:31:59.723-04:00Hi Elisabeth,
My wonderful fellow critique group...Hi Elisabeth, <br />My wonderful fellow critique group member, Sandy Cody, pointed me to your post as something I might relate to (in reverse). I'll be traveling from the East Coast to Canberra at the end of next month to visit my family. I grew up in Adelaide, but have lived in the U.S. since 1969, so have made the trip, and experienced that disconcerting change of seasons, innumerable times.<br /><br />I enjoyed reading about your travels here very much.Sharen Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17727069376424616934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6632249142954767681.post-79076120131491795632009-07-29T15:05:04.958-04:002009-07-29T15:05:04.958-04:00Lis, thanks for sharing your experience. It's ...Lis, thanks for sharing your experience. It's always interesting to learn how our country appears (or more importantly, feels) to a visitor. I'm glad you didn't confine yourselves to cities, but saw some of the natural beauty. Dear, dear friends of ours live in Australia so, when we visited there, we had a similar experience. It, too, is a beautiful country. Wish we could afford an annual trip.<br /><br />Hope Colin has recovered completely. It's no fun being sick away from home.Sandy Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02824301408180614516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6632249142954767681.post-36555263002640976092009-07-28T22:42:00.117-04:002009-07-28T22:42:00.117-04:00Hi Jean,

I knew some of you were in that area but not exactly where--and you wouldn't have wanted a visit from a sickie LOL<br /><br />We stayed in Naples the first night and Williamstown the second.
