I wanted to wish you a wonderful and safe and spectacular journey "Down Under"! Thanks Dansy. I hope to be able to post a G'day to my Finest mates while I'm down there..... (a little Australian lingo. LOL.) I'm told there are cyber cafes everywhere in the big cities. :-)
My only concern is the 15 hour flight. I can't even contemplate what it's going to be like to be on a plane that long. My hope is to fall asleep immediately and wake up a few minutes later in Sydney. LOL.
Good morning, Mama_Bear! We look forward to this series (!) series and the opportunity for Freeper Enlightment, Edification & Encouragement, so we can be all we can be..:))
As for your imminent departure, I understand Australia already is preparing for your arrival....
The press room at The Sydney Blabber has headlines ready to roll, saying this:
WARNING - BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR ONE MAMA_BEAR
ON WALKABOUT FROM AMERICA !!!
This bear is both disarming and dangerous - comes 'bearing' gifs, and gives {{{{ Hugs }}}} at the slightest provocation!
Known to drip with honey to all within 5,000 miles, and smiles-a-lot....
The only way to placate her is to surrender and 'endure.'
That will be the appropriate reward for her capture of you..:))
She is our Very Finest Bear, Australia!
We love ya, Mama - - -
