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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
