I am testing to see if I can email posts to the blog.

I'm heading off to Melbourne this evening on the first leg of my trip.
We fly out to Thailand in the wee hours of Saturday morning, and the
cycling will start on Tuesday.

I am looking forward to it, and am happy to have the two days in
Melbourne to catch up with my friends Debbie and Kelvin and also to sort out any last minute things that I may have fogotten.

It has been a little crazy here at home trying to get things organised
for the trip and I will be glad to be able to breathe again.
