Travel to Australia

Wasn't too bad. A non-event in Seattle with the one exception of Alaska taking 30 minutes to figure out what to charge me for my bike case.
I would suggest flying Virgin from Seattle though if your going to fly Virgin Australia to Australia. Because I came in on Alaska, it meant a had to walk from terminal 1 to terminal 3 to switch airlines. I'm sure there's transportation somehow, but I was told walking was faster and easier and it wasn't too bad.
Customs and Immigration in Brisbane was very easy, but I had to pick up my bags and carry them onto a bus that took me to the domestic terminal and then recheck them there. Not real easy with the big bike case.
I landed in Port Macquarie exactly 24 hours after taking off in Seattle Washington. Here are some pictures of the local airport, or air strip...
