Yep, Joan is Australian. Or maybe was, as she's a US citizen now.
She hates team sports, but loves rowing. Has her own carbon fiber racing
shell that she uses quite a bit. Not for racing, she just likes her
recreation fast at times. And there is a certain challenge in getting
about on the water on something a lot narrower than you and over 20' long.
What Syd does not maybe realize is if I went there, I'd disappear into
the outback, go walkabout. I really loved it out there, way out there.
It was kind of funny when I was over there trying to find out info. The
average person in the coastal cities can tell you almost nothing about
what's going on in the outback. It was hard to even get a weather
report. Maybe it's changed now.
Joan also loves frogs.
Walt
