There _may_ be a new TSA regulation reducing the number of books allowed in your carry-on luggage from 4 to 2. Does that mean journals as well? What about datebooks? (for the record, I carried two novels, a journal and my planner on my flight to Australia, and two novels, a play, some magazines, my journal and my planner on the flight back -- horrors!) No one knows, but that we're even having this conversation is grim, yeah?

The number of books? How ridiculous. Are they afraid of the flammability or something?

On a separate topic, if you had two weeks to spend in Australia - as a visitor - where would you go? :)

Well, I've only been to Sydney, and so I can only speak for Sydney, which I loved and kept me plenty busy for the month I was there (although obviously, my days were very tied up).

Are you planning a trip? I can give you really detailed Sydney recs.

Woo! I'd love it. Yes, I'm planning a trip - an around the world one - with Australia being one of the stops.

What were you doing in Sydney?

I was studying at NIDA during their summer term... I will write up a list of things in the next couple of days and post it. It's really a fantastic city. What time of year are you going?

Lovely! You talk about Australia so often I was under the impression you had grown up there. :)

I'll be there in early September, me thinks.
