One of the great benefits of working at eBay is that after 5 years of work, we are given a 4 week sabbatical in addition to the standard vacation. Obviously, this time is best spent taking a great trip to a far away land. Fortunately, Dee Dee was able to take four weeks off too and we decided to go to Australia and New Zealand for just under four weeks.
Australia and New Zealand are both beautiful countries to visit and traveling there is VERY easy. Both countries have very strong British influences and a lot of American brands have permeated their store shelves and restaurants. The familiarity makes visiting these countries very easy and non-threatening to a beginning traveler. There is so much outdoor beauty, unique cities and wonderful people to meet that makes the 14 hour plane right from SFO well worth it! Our adventure began on November 5 and traveled through December 1, 2007.
