. . . why there’re no blog articles this week, it’s because I miscalculated my return date to the U.S. and wound up short. Ursula and I just made it back into Los Angeles after over a month in Oceana. That includes four days on Rarotonga of the Cook Islands and a 34-night circumnavigation cruise around the continent of Australia with a side trip to New Zealand. We were also supposed to make port in Bali, but no one was allowed off the ship for obvious reasons.
