Home Before We Left

December 12th is the day we never had. And, January 2 is the day that lasts - seemingly - forever.

It's a bit after 1PM PT and we're home at last. Of course, the first time we experienced January 2, 2008 at 1 PM we were hopping in a car heading for the Sydney Airport. We traveled 7,000 miles or so in those "few minutes".

Yep. That whole International Date Line thing is pretty trippy. And, we're glad to be home.

If you're thinking about traveling to New Zealand and/or Australia, we say "Do it!"
As you plan your trip, if you'd like more info about any of the things we did (or didn't do) while we were there, just ask. We'll be happy to share.

Anyway, it was really great to go and even more great to be home...with 10 more hours to rest, relax and unpack in our first-ever 48 hour day.

Thanks for following along with our adventures. There may be another travel blog in our future. P is cooking up plans for a trip to the Grand Canyon...in an RV. So, who knows?

Stay tuned!

You two look wonderful . . . like you've just had a great vacation. Thank you so much for the great blog, so full of humor. The videos of New Year's Eve were wild. I was so curious to know how it went for you. Sounds and looks like it met/exceeded your expectations. Look forward to seeing you both soon. (I know a good chiropractor for relieving pinched nerves.)

Welcome home you two. I can't wait to see you and hear about your trip in person. The pictures you took were fab.

So glad you're home safe and sound with an 48 hours to boot.

See you soon.
