Back in the Land of Oz

Yesterday morning we finally arrived in Sydney, Australia. Considering the length of the flight, 3 hours to San Fransisco and 15 hours to Sydney, we felt great getting off the plane. Lucky for us the plane was not full and we had 4 seats in a row to spread out on and catch some sleep.

After not seeing each other for over 3 years we were reunited with Todd and Vicky when they picked us up at the airport and drove us back to their house in Dee Why where we will be staying.

We spent the day lounging on the beach, and even though it is coming into winter here the weather is great, around 20 - 25 degrees. Todd and Vicky live about a 2 minute walk to the beautiful beach which is lined with numerous small bars and restaurants.

Our first night was spent drinking wine and reminiscing about old times, as well as catching up on the past few years. It feels like we never left.

After a good night sleep last night we are over the jetlag and ready to get back into full on tourist mode and get out and see the city.
