As winter approached in Atlanta, we hightailed it to Australia to enjoy the summer Down Under. Getting there is no joke, entailing flights of five hours from Atlanta to Los Angeles and then fifteen hours to Sydney the next day. But we were hoping it would be well worth the trip because Australia — as a continent untouched by European settlers until the late 18th century — offers some of the most pristine and unusual natural environments to be found anywhere in the world.
The strangest thing though, was we completely missed out on Cyber Monday! We left Los Angeles on Sunday night and, fifteen hours later, arrived in Sydney on Tuesday morning, so Monday disappeared somewhere over the Pacific. We also restrained from availing ourselves of the WiFi on board, so no shopping online sales this year!
This is the third time we’ve used the homeopathic No Jet Lag pills, and with a +16 hour time difference between Atlanta and Sydney, we were very impressed with the way they worked. We had few jet lag symptoms, and adjusted very quickly to the new time zone.
