G'day!

G'day mate! Our journey has officially set sail and we will now be reporting from our new home of Melbourne, Australia! Doesn't that sound so cool... "Hi, I live in Australia!" I think so too :) Well, lets fast forward a little to catch you up on our flight adventures. Our suitcases were very close to being quite a problem. Adri made it through with her bags and I was the next one to weigh them in... Let me just start by saying, if anyone knows me well, they know I love my clothes and shoes! You never know what you might want to wear, so of course, you have to have plenty of options. Well, that didn't fly with the airline people, so there I was trying to decide what I was going to leave at home just to shed off two pounds. Like really, two pounds? After I fixed that dilemma, Adri and I met up in Los Angeles, which I must say was a beautiful flight in with the city lit up! Our next item on the list of things to do was stock up on a few things before that long, dreadful flight. We grabbed snacks, magazines, and those pretty little neck pillows (sarcasm)... Yes, we were now those people walking through the airport with the donut neck pillows (which I must say, was the best investment ever). I think they'd make a great fashion statement! After a two hour wait to board our massive plane, our group was called to take our seats; we made our way back and got situated for take-off. FINALLY we were sitting on our flight that we have been looking forward to for months! We kept asking ourselves, "Is this real? Are we really doing this?"... and sure enough, it was! Let the fifteen hour flight commence. On the plus side to the long flight, time change situation, we were loving the fact that we were literally getting to skip valentines day! Now that we have been in the air for quite awhile, it was time to try and get some shut eye in between the screaming babies and snoring people... Catch you on the flip side of the world!
