Ogunquit, Maine ... where summer never ends!
That is exactly how it feels in this idyllic part of New England, where with the end of each day you feel that the summer simply will never end.

> take a ride with Sydney Ferries: there is no better way to see Sydney than from the water. From Darling Harbour, right on the edge of downtown, hop on to the ferry that goes to Abbotsford and beyond. As you leave the downtown area behind, heading towards the many bays of the city, you will see why Sydney is one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Do you believe there's a place that feels like the end of the world? Cairns is it!
As we're landing in this very north-eastern city in Australia, the first sign of civilization that I saw were corrugated tin roofs. After landing and driving to our B&B, you realize this is a very small town and a far cry from the sophistication of Melbourne. It's hard to believe this is the same country. It's not uncommon to what you would see in small-town USA, or remote Canada.
Welcome to Melbourne! We land, are chauffeured to the hotel and one of the first things I did was check my emails to see if anything had changed in respect to the meetings that I had setup for tomorrow. I grab my laptop, open it, connect to the wireless ... and get the shock of my life. $26 for 2 hours of wi-fi connection. Are they crazy!!!!! I'm totally in the wrong business. I was peeved for that is a blatant rip-off. But public wi-fi is something that's not easy to come across Melbourne (or Sydney for that matter!!)
