My physical limitations are often in conflict with my desire for adventure and spontaneity. There’s a certain romantic notion of adventure and simply going where your mood and the road take you. However, this can be incredibly difficult when the “road” is made of dirt and stairs and your mood is, “Dammit, I’m in so much pain!!! Why didn’t I plan for this?!” My visit to Jenolan Caves was one of these times.

Sydney, Australia regularly tops lists as one of the most accessible cities in the world. In fact, the most difficult part of the trip is the long haul flight one must endure to get there. But don’t worry, I have helpful suggestions on how you can make the flight more tolerable and fully enjoy the land down under.
