Getting a Drink in a Dry Country

As many of you, Kentucky is largely a dry state. In other words, out of the 120 counties here about 14 of them or so allow the sell of alcohol. Usually not a hard thing to overcome if you want a "little pull" of something. Go over to a wet country and get all you want (within the legal limits) to bring it home with you.

Well, I have a professor friend, of Aussie extraction, that lives and teaches in the small country of Brunei in Borneo. That's in SE Asia for all the geography wizards out there. I never thought about having to go to another country just to take a snort, but that is exactly where she finds herself in this story of hers. Read it and I am sure you will be as entertained as I was. Fascinating woman with a lifetime of fascinating tales to tell. I am sure if you stick with her, she will tell you about her trip across China and into Mongolia this past summer. Her blog is well worth the watch!
