Australia Slides
Gabrielle and I took an amazing trip to Australia in 1995. We were gone nearly an entire month, and we did about as much of the country as you could do in that time. A quick rundown of our trip:
- Fly from Boston to Sydney. Travel time, approximately 24 hours
- Sydney
- Blue Mountains
- Canberra
- Melbourne
- Adelaide
- Alice Springs, Kings Canyon, Ayer's Rock (Uluru)
- Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef
- Sydney and back home
We had a remarkable time and I took about 10 rolls of pictures, using high end Velvia slide film, much to Gabrielle's chagrin. We carried around an "eski", a styrofoam carrier with ice and the film cannisters in a bag, as that kind of film can't get too hot or too cold. I have two holders of pictures, and if you ever come over, we'd be glad to show them to you!
As I said earlier, we are painting our hallway, and Gabrielle picked out 6 pictures to have blown up to 16x20 and framed. Unfortunately, the Ayer's Rock picture didn't come on a CD, but the other 5 we recently had done and got a CD with them on it. So I will be presenting them here.
