Australians all let us rejoice
For we are Howard free
Last week I told my tabla teacher that the Australian election was coming and told him that John Howard follows George Bush. He said "This is not good" and he asked about the opposition. I told him that there is not a huge difference but at least they will not follow George Bush so much. The first thing my tabla teacher said to me this morning was "The Labour Party won the Australian elections"
While all the excitement was happening in Australia on the weekend I was with 4 others (an Israeli, a British, an American and a Swede) cruising on a houseboat in the backwaters of Kerala. Beautiful scenery, great food and fun company.
