Coming Home

Well we finally did it - got on the plane and came back to Australia. When we rang Qantas to arrange the flight back we were uncertain when we could return as we thought that it would be difficult to get seats. The people at Qantas laughed at us and told us that this was no problem as there were many, many places available. On the flight back both Sharon and I each had a whole row of seats to ourselves on both connections to Australia. We were able to lie down and sleep, lie down and watch the entertainment screen and lie down and eat ïn bed". In fact there were so few people on the flights we almost all had a flight attendant each. The Qantas flight went without a hitch and it was the only flight during the whole trip that actually left and landed at the advertised time. It was great arriving in Australia where we were able to use the ATM machines without a transaction fee. We came home to our beloved dogs and much cuddling and licking took place before we collapsed into bed exhausted after a twenty-two hour trip from one hemisphere to the other. Soon we will wake up.
