It has been awhile since we last talked. Let me catch you up on things.
Kim and I finished our last few days in Newcastle by packing up and saying goodbye to friends. It was a sad moment! We finally headed out to Sydney for our last 3 days in the country. We did some last minute souvenir shopping and got in our last cravings of meat pies. We finished our day by sitting in Circular Quay enjoying the views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House. The site of them just never got old.
The next day we planned on heading to Manly Beach. Our friend Edgar that was staying in the country longer, met us in Sydney and off we were. The beach was beautiful as always. It was nice and sunny at the beginning, but the weather got cloudy and started to rain. Kimmy, Edgar, and I hung out at a pub until it slowed down. We headed back to our hostel, grabbed some Mexican food and said our last goodbye to Edgar.
Our flight left November 27th at 9:20pm, so we had some time to spare. We walked around the city for some last site seeing then it was off to the airport. The bus we took was a bit late and then the line for to check in was extremely long. Security was annoying also...they took my Vegemite!! Thankfully I was able to grab another bottle on our sprint to our gate. We made it to the gate right as we were boarding! It was a close call! Fewf!
It was a long flight of not being able to sleep which wasn't the most fun thing. When we finally arrived in Hawaii, we had to go through Customs and check our bags again and then security again! Thankfully this process was smoother than in Sydney. It was weird being back in America!! Three hours later, Kim and I were on another plane back to Phoenix. My mom and sister were there to meet us at the gate! Marli made me a sign and they were waving American flags. It was a very warm welcome home.
