As we get ready to leave (in only about 10 weeks!) I've started to brush up on my Australian music. We have been listening to Melbourne's Triple M radio station on our Sonos and I've been listening to INXS, Crowded House, Midnight Oil, Men at Work, and AC/DC. It is remarkable to me that I can listen to Australian radio from my bedroom. I remember when a shortwave radio seemed like the only way to learn about things happening in other parts of the world. This is just one example of how I anticipate the internet will make the world a lot smaller than it used to be when we are on this trip.
