Home From Home

It's four o'clock on Sunday morning here and we've just arrived back in the Dong.

Door to door, that's a 35 hour journey. Sounds bad , but it was actually alright. As our son, Cory, was 'Trooping the Colour' on Horse Guards Parade in London, I was watching Billy Elliot over Indonesia

Despite it being the wee small hours, I'm wide awake. Still on Rhyl time, I guess. It's seven p.m. there. The iced coffee with added guarana I had an hour ago may also be a contributing factor.

It's a weird feeling. We're home, but we've just left home.

As we flew into Sydney we had a great view over the harbour. Being greeted by the iconic sight of the Opera House and the 'Old Coathanger' left me with a warm, welcoming feeling inside.

We're home. From home.

Sorry to hear about your news back in the UK. Glad you were able to get back though.

Fingers crossed we will be in Albury/Wodonga next year. Just waiting for the army to say yes now.
Take care
