Melbourne

Wow, where does the time go? It looks like it's been over 2 month since I've last posted....I've gotten bad at this. Or maybe just too busy. Well, I just got back from a parasite conference in Melbourne. So up until then I had been trying to collect as much data as possible and put together a good talk. My talk went really well and was on the first day of the conference so I could just relax and enjoy the conference the rest of the week. It was the largest one I've been too with over 1800 attendees, 10 of us from my lab went. We had a great time together and I loved Melbourne. It's an easy city to get around in with great public transport. I went to the aquarium, zoo, Queen Victoria Market where I bought some wonderful cheddar cheese (YUM!), ate a lot of gelato and good Italian and Greek and lots of drinks with the lab. There's a new photo album link for a few pics.

Now I've got less than 7 weeks til my exit seminar....which means finishing all data collection, all analysis and all figures and put together the talk. I will pretty much live at the dept over this time...lots to do before the end of the year. Ok, I'm off to teach a lab, where we are dissecting sharks and possums...fun!
