I returned from Sydney, Australia a couple of weeks ago. Sydney is a beautiful city. I saw as much as I could in the relatively short amount of time I was there. My main purpose was
to attend the Summit conference for Liberty League International. We stayed in a fabulous
hotel - the Intercontinental Hotel.

The hotel was right across the street from the Botanical Gardens where I took a walk every morning. (I never did adjust to the time change completely. I got up around 4am and fell asleep around 7pm each evening). The Gardens area has gardens (of course) , various birds that we don't see in the US AND thousands of bats!! I have never seen such a thing. Thousands of bats
hanging from trees and making lots of noise.

I also very much enjoyed a tript to Taronga zoo where I took a "Behind the Scenes" tour with one of the keepers. I spent 5 hours there and took lots of pictures. If you look at my web site, there is a picture of me in front of the Sydney Opera House and also at the Taronga Zoo next to a Koala. I really wanted to touch him (her?) but it now against the law in most states of Australia to touch a Koala unless you are a zoo keeper or have some sort of special authorization. I did pet a Wallaby and Kangaroo though.

It is fantastic to be part of a company that has such a strong, supportive, family oriented community. The conversations and level of thinking is a cut above most (or maybe all) other companies. It's not just me who thinks this - many others who get involved express the same sentiment. If you love to travel and want to live an exceptional life - this is a great place to be.

Being back in Chicago is always good too - I love this city!
