Well i made it!!!! I am now in Australia. It smells different, but so homey. You take a deep breath in and smell water,salt,trees,fresh air. I dont know if anyone else knows what i mean, but it just smells different to me in different places. Like in Iowa i can smell Halloween in the air at the start of October.
I arrived in Adelaide and was greeted by Mel and Lara. Lara took a few mins to warm up to me, and then wanted me to hold her. Guess she is usually shy, so thats nice 
Cute lil bugger. We went back to Mels to hang out some, and then i showered….oh the joys of a cold shower on a hot day. And i must say its NOT hot here at all, a normal day, but it sure shocked me in my hot jeans. We went out to a place called Fasta Pasta and i had a lovely meal. Will have to take ya Nath, you would enjoy it. Although the pasta was not so fasta tonight. Busy night i guess. Came back to Mel’s house and was joined by Simon, his wife Lou and 2 kids. Wow, His Son is a Mini ME Simon. Was kinda freaky!!! lol So different to see all my friends with kids. How so very grown up of them!!!!! *giggles*
So i guess my mum couldnt wait 10 days, so she and my lil bro are coming down tomorrow. Mum hasent met Reiley yet, so she is killing two birds with one stone i guess.
Well i need sleep…………
Just a quick update. Am sitting in Auckland waiting for my next flight to Australia. My big flight, i was blessed by the gods above and had the seat next to me free. I would have had all 3 seats to myself, but a plane to brisbane was cancelled due to a broken part and they put everyone on my flight. Let me just tell you, ask for seat 47A always, they say no one wants it, as it is on the wing, hell i will take it anyday if i dont have to sit next to someone. And Nathan you will be proud, i slept/dosed for up to 7 hours. I would have to wait up every now and then and move, as it was not comfortable. I hurt my ankle in MN of all places, so its pretty screwed up, i always hurt myself on trips it seems. Last trip i broke my hand. Nathan the entertainment systems rock ass now, alot more movies and shows to pick from, and muriel, cause they have all aussie movies to pick from too. You can pause movies now too. ALOT BETTER! You will love it. Havent eaten much, as the stuff has all been egg. But i am dosed high with dramamine(sp?), so i wasent sick at all on take off, or landing on the big plane, hope that stays that way for the next 2 flights. This keyboard rocks, its mini and cute. Such a geek!!! ummm what else. I sat behind the bitch from hell, she needed to calm way the hell down, i wanted to smack her, there is no room in the chairs, and if u knocked her chair she would stand up with fists. stupid whore, chill out. Its a long and annoying flight for everyone. It was soooooo cool seeing people like me….funny hey, but i could pick the aussies without even hearing them, and ALL the flight peoples are super young and hip, look like lil babies to me…….anyways, 7 mins left of email time, so here is my Auckland update. I will be home in about 6 or so hours now…..yay. Only 12 C in Auckland, feels hot in the airport……..
Updates later on…….
Leaving now, keep checking back for updates on my/our trip!
