It seems there\u2019s a large Indonesian community near the airport, so we went to an Indonesian restaurant. The dishes that Atsuko and I ordered took quite a while to arrive, so we ended up having to eat in a huge rush.

Paul and Greg headed straight to return their rental car, as they were catching a 4:00 PM flight back to Brisbane. And so, we parted ways here\u2014bidding each other a reluctant farewell with the words, &#8220;Let&#8217;s meet again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-57967\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5438-400x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5438-400x300.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5438-800x600.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5438-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5438.jpeg 1477w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u30db\u30c6\u30eb\u306e\u90e8\u5c4b\u306b\u5165\u3063\u3066\u5c0f\u4e00\u6642\u9593\u306f\u6c17\u3092\u5931\u3046\u3088\u3046\u306b\u5bdd\u305f\u308a\u3057\u3064\u3064\u3082\u30cb\u30e5\u30fc\u30b8\u30fc\u30e9\u30f3\u30c9\u306e\u30e9\u30a4\u30d6\u306e\u6e96\u5099\u3082\u3044\u308d\u3044\u308d\u3084\u3063\u3066\u3001\u5348\u5f8c\uff17\u6642\u306b\u30db\u30c6\u30eb\u306e\u98df\u5802\u3078\u884c\u304d\u3001\u30e1\u30f3\u30d0\u30fc\uff13\u4eba\u3067\u30d7\u30c1\u6253\u3061\u4e0a\u3052\u3092\u3057\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002\u30ef\u30a4\u30f3\u304a\u3044\u3057\u3044\u3002\u305d\u306e\u5f8c\u90e8\u5c4b\u306b\u623b\u3063\u3066\u30d6\u30ed\u30b0\u306e\u4e0b\u66f8\u304d\u3092\u3057\u305f\u308a\u3057\u3066\u5c31\u5bdd\u3002\u660e\u65e5\u306e\u671d\u306f\u65e9\u3044\u3067\u3059\u3002<br \/>\nAfter arriving at my hotel room, I fell into a deep, unconscious-like sleep for about an hour, then spent some time preparing for our upcoming live shows in New Zealand. At 7:00 PM, I headed to the hotel dining area, where the three of us\u2014the band members\u2014had a small, informal celebration. The wine was delicious. Later, I returned to my room, worked on a blog draft, and then went to bed. I have an early start tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-57966\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5440-400x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5440-400x300.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5440-800x600.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5440-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5440-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5440-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-57971\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-300x400.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5443-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-57969\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-300x400.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5441-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-57970\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-300x400.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.shonenknife.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/IMG_5442-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>11\u6708\uff12\u65e5\uff08\u6708\uff09\u79fb\u52d5\u65e5\u3000\u30cb\u30e5\u30fc\u30ab\u30c3\u30b9\u30eb\u304b\u3089\u30b7\u30c9\u30cb\u30fc\u3078 Monday, November 2nd Travel Day from New Castle to Sydney \u30db\u30c6\u30eb\u3092\uff11\uff10\u6642\u306b\u30c1\u30a7\u30c3 &hellip;
