Day 1
As I write this on my iPhone, sitting in Melbourne airport waiting on a connecting flight I realize how Internet reliant I am for communications.

Boarding a flight with a magazine to tide over those 20 minutes before I can play with my PSP or try the flightmode on my phone I send my last SMS before media blackout. On return to the 21st century I am rewarded with cut price airport wifi and quick response MSN access.

This is of course short lived as the next flight is called.

Day 2
No accessible wifi at the hotel. Forced to roam the streets looking for my next broadband fix.

Until you have a mobile wifi enabled device you are almost unaware of the invisible conversations around you. With the most unlikely of places being hotspot enabled who would think you could have a side of Google with your nandos.

Its a good thing too ...I'm currently travelling with family. An experience I now liken to being cockpunched by a jail harden Mike Tyson.

Day 3
Contact. Using a free computer with broadband I am able to connect with the outside world. I have tasted a world without and found it bitter and lacking click-ability without legal repercussions.

Day 4
Return to our regularly scheduled program. Broadband from home embraces like a long lost lover ensuring the base needs are met. While my cat makes short work of my epidermis ensuring I realise that I left her home alone while I made the interstate trek and have the scars to prove it.
