At the beginning of November we had the dates<br />

of when the kites would have been ready for shipping<br />

from the factory. Out of nowhere Australia<br />

came out as a good option since Billy Hampton<br />

could join us on the shipping and the coast below<br />

Margaret River is pretty cool.<br />

So we decided to book flights to Australia, me<br />

and Lou the “behind the camera” boss. After things<br />

got booked I started to think about the deadly<br />

animals that live in Australia… Sharks…. Snakes….<br />

Spiders… Crazy kangaroos…. OMG it’s going to be<br />

a crazy trip since Lou loves to find nature and wild<br />

stuff.<br />

Got myself on the plane from Lisbon to Dubai and<br />

then Perth. It was a journey about 24 hrs long......<br />

it’s a pain in the ass I can tell you. It was hard to<br />

keep myself awake since I like to try to sleep at<br />

the local time at destination so I don’t get jetlagged.<br />

I arrived in Perth at 11 pm, rented out a car and<br />

got lost on the way to Safety Bay because of<br />

some road construction so some of the roads<br />

were closed. So it took me about 40 extra mins<br />

to arrive. Finally I got home and first thing I did<br />

was to check up for deadly animals in my room.<br />

I looked for spiders and snakes in every hidden<br />

place. Nothing…
