We had a good couple of weeks going to Sydney and then Launceston. You probably read Eli's posts, but here's my summary. We went to Sydney for the Australasian HIV meeting. It was good. I gave a talk and chaired a session. Dave gave a plenary and chaired two sessions and judged a whole bunch of things. But, when Dave was busy, Eli and I got to go explore the Sydney Eye and the Aquarium. Also, Dave and I got to run down in the Botanical Gardens a couple of times, and we snapped a few pics in the harbor. In addition, Eli and I went up to the U of New South Wales to meet a collaborator one day, and we did the Coogee to Bondi walk. You can see the picture of us at Bondi below.
Also, we went to Launceston and had a nice time there. We walked A TON. We saw lots of birds too. We got to hike in the Cataract Gorge and over to Wineglass Bay in Freycinet. We fed kangaroos and got to pat a wombat. I think the wombat is my favorite marsupial. They just seem cuddly...
Enjoy the pics!
