We can't believe it -- our trip is over! Yesterday morning, we got up in Sydney and headed over to the Opera House for a tour. What a great way to end our time in Australia. It is such an impressive building in an incredible setting. We're sorry we didn't get to any performances there, but next time we'll be sure to do that. Many types of shows take place there in the different venues within the Opera House. When we finished the tour, we walked back to the hotel for the shuttle to the airport. The flight from Sydney to San Francisco was long (13+ hours) but the flight wasn't full so we had a little room to spread out. We left Sydney at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday (Oct. 31st) and landed in SF at 9:55 a.m. the same day. We couldn't believe how quickly we passed through baggage, immigration and customs. Heather and Niko surprised us by picking us up. Niko did a good job of making us feel like he remembered us, smiling and cooing the whole way home.

Later on, Melanie brought Maile and Mason over, so we had a great welcome home!
Alice in Wonderland and Donald Duck (Maile and Mason) made us feel glad to be home! (Note the date on these 2 photos -- the camera is still on Sydney time, just like our bodies!)
