Hey guys! I finally made it on! Once again, thanks for the birthday wishes! It sure feels good to have friends from around the globe. Anyway, we just got done with a port visit in Brisbane and it was pretty cool. It did look a great deal like the United States in a lot of ways - large open countryside (not a lot of that in Oki), modern cities, Target (as in the store), malls, etc. I did get a pretty good steak while I was there and of course the obligatory beer or two . . .or three. . .or four (at least not all at once!) It was certainly good to get of the pirate ship and walk around and not have meetings to go to, slides to create, etc.
By the way, here is a picture of my reenlisting one of my Staff Sergeants:
Cheers and more photos to come.
