February 19: Suitcase, by Mie |
|
 | The door chimes rang. I found a big corrugated carton like this. |
|
I soon struggled to open it and took out a big suitcase.
Yes, this is the good I ordered just three days ago through the net. It's really quick.

The frame is made from light and rigid 96%-magnasium alloy. The shell is coated with shock-resistant new high-tech polymer. The color of the case is classical midnight blue. The internal partition lid is my favorite light violet, equipped with a fastener holder that may allow me to put many items. |
| I laid the suitcase beside an old one we have used for more than two decades with a lot of memories. The new suitcase is designed for easy handling with four casters that allow better move. Now we are ready to go abroad. |  |
 | We are planning to make a trip to Australia this April for a month to visit Internet friends. Since I published my home page on the web five years ago, we got some friends in Australia as well. We are now making detailed itinerary through the E-mail with them. |
|
We have checked the flight schedule, reserved hotels, and collected information on Australia through the web. This time, we will visit Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide.
A small brochure taught us that Adelaide is a beautiful city named after an excellent queen of the United Kingdom. Barossa Valley is said to have a similar climate with Germany and we hope to taste famous wineries there.
We also hope to say hello to many unusual animals like koala, kangaroo, and penguin. We are enjoying the preparation for the trip. |  |
