Dear Beancounter, your post was so close to home. I have done been traveling by myself for a long time since I was a kid, and it's sometimes the reason why I am so "cultured" i suppose. Or maybe just appreciative of down to earth things like having breakfast on land! I know the mornings driving to the airport and the in-flight breakfast all too well. One thing I DID wish I had was the DVD you watched, Eat, Drink, Man, Woman. How was it? Also, never flew to Australia but thought the people from there were so nice! Thank you for sharing.
Cheers, Gaby

hello there Gabriella! Thanks for dropping by!
The movie was great... it's one of my all time favourites... the downside is you feel so hungry (for chinese food) while/after watching it...
Wow, I'd NEVER think to put coconut on oysters! Interesting.
I prefer my oysters natural but it wasn't on the menu that evening... the coconut and the mango were a nice touch... a bit too sweet for me though...
I love the food pics...that dvd is one of my favourite food movies, I love the dad's kitchen, when I feel uninspired cooking I usually watch the dvd, it always picks me up. I love the art part of cooking!
ps. that blueberry cheesecake looks so yummy ha...ingit ako..lol..
thanks cusinera...
the movie is very inspiring indeed...
This is a great peek in the life of a road warrior. I sometimes envy people who travel for work - since it's for free and you rack up those air miles, wow! Did you get to see "Up In The Air?"
can't wait to see that film Nomad... but I would have to wait for the DVD as i'm limited to kids movies of late...
i am very grateful indeed that i get to travel for work... might not be to very glamourous destinations (like the places you've been) but i still am very thankful...
