I'll be back soon

So its been almost 20 days since I last posted, sorry about that.

I really want to blame the computer having issues but as I've had it back for over a week and it has taken me until now to actually post anything, instead I'm going to blame it on being in another country for the first time ever and packing my schedule so full that I haven't had time to put a post together until now.

I have decided too, that rather than try to post all my activities for the trip before I get home, or try and start now and catch up later, I will hold off blogging about my trip until I get home and can get them to a standard which I am happy with while still keeping them in the right order.  The only problem this leaves me with is what to write about now.

This problem is compounded by the very fact that I haven't blogged in almost 20 days which has put me out of the swing of blogging again, so soon after starting.  I never realised until I started blogging that it is more than simply sitting down at the computer and writing stream of consciousness until you've had enough.  At least it isn't for me.

Although I do write most of these posts in a stream of consciousness way, because I decided that was how I wanted to handle this early on, I go back and make sure that I feel everything makes sense before I post it. This is because it is a public medium and I would really rather have at least semi-polished work on here to be read, although I have the sneaking suspicion that I'm not doing terrifically well with that.

Well this post has gone in rather a different direction to where I thought it was headed when I started typing.  I was originally intending to post a little about the places I've been, without giving too much away for the more detailed posts later, but I guess that's what happens when you write in a stream of consciousness style.

I might post again before I get back to Australia, but I wouldn't really count on it.  Thanks for sticking with me despite this.
