I’ve actually made it to page 2 for the generic search phrase “australian vacation” without any other qualifiers, and with hardly any links to the site from elsewhere. I’ve been getting 4-5 random visitors per day from various search terms. Welcome!

As has been pointed out to me by a good friend of mine, none of the photos in my blog header have anything to do with Australia. I thought I had acknowledged that by putting the “insert photo here” in the center. Oh, well…

Fellow MyBlogLogger Chris Mitchell has an excellent post in his blog on Thailand and East Asia travel with Seven Tips for Taking a Laptop Travelling. There are some great ideas there, especially about protecting yourself in the event somebody finds (or “obtains”) your laptop.
