Bit of a situation

Ok first of all, sorry I haven't posted in a while. There's only one computer where I'm at so getting on long enough to post is a little tough. Right now I'm in London and I'm really having a good time. It's a pretty big city which is new (Dublin really wasn't that big-London is huge) but I'm in a pretty cool spot close to everything but not actually right in the heart of the madness. I've got a lot of pictures-hopefully I can get a few of those up today. Anyway, I've got a bit of a situation going on back home that I have to take care of. So, I'm flying home on Thursday. I'll hopefully spend a month there sorting things out before flying out to Australia. Rather than try to pick up the trip where I left off (which would mean I lose about a grand and a lot of time) I'm going to skip that bit (Regretfully-it was gonna be a lot of fun and I was really looking forward to seeing the family and Mohammed) and just pick it up at a later point in the itinerary. Hopefully, this 1.) works out as far as the situation and an Australian visa and 2.) Means I can travel around Australia more as well as going to New Zealand, Hawaii, California and maybe now I'll even be able to pull off Brazil. We'll see! For right now, I'm going to go to the Australian Embassy here in London and see what is possible. I'll let you all know as soon as I can.
