5:00pm, Tue 01 Dec 2009 :  Julia Gates wants her own best job in the world
Had the pleasure of Julia Gates spending time with me during November as a Couch Surfer and "new import". She was fun to have about the boat that is for sure.... I have never seen Peanut Butter offered as part of desert... but that's Julia for you.

We also managed to get a pilot going for her seeking her own "best in job in the world". Bugger eh? For this she had to spend a trip on British Defender, a maxi yacht that sails the Whitsundays for 2 night tours. The weather was perfect and she got to enjoy being a bit of celeb as the camera's were pointed at her.

For me it was heaps of fun as at one point, I was motoring alongside two maxi yachts while I tried to get that perfect shot.

Otherwise the Whitsundays was in full display!! The blue sky, the fun, the islands.... and a bit of a video to make. :)

Guess Julia has to keep looking, but I already have the best job in the world ... for me....

Quote from Ghandi
I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows to be stuffed. I want the culture of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible.

Pretty much my life... and I love it.

Telstra Next G coverage continues to impress. Using my Tu500 handset, I have been able to get on the net at high speed at various places. The latency of the network also seems very low when I get on. Very nice.

John speaks about Telstra Next G

Says it all : "Sailing" by Christopher Cross
It's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free

Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me

It's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
