My Dad and Uncle John Made it Down Under


I am prepared for the guy to arrive - Dad and Uncle John are down under! I sorted out sleeping arrangements, schedule and time off.

So great to have family in town!













John took some pics on the way - the flights were good, not too many bumps, good service, lots of food and snack.

Dad struggled hearing the dvd and he had a baby next to him, so he didnt sleep :(









I got up early and met them there...it was SO excited pacing back and forth in anticipation. I was excited and nervous for them to arrive.

Dad looked beat! Hot and stressed - getting thru customs is never fun, but it went well. Once on the road to mine, we had fun driving on the other side of the road and catching up!






I headed off to work - they explored bondi!



























Saw the beach, hit a few pubs, had some laughs...experienced the aussie accents and had a hard time with a New Zealander. A bartender at the local tiki type bar - she was taking shots mid day...as you do in australia.



















The guys were passed out when i got off - 7pm. I expected them to be exhausted. I let them sleep, they got up for a bit but were out of it. I went to a friends to let them just sleep.
Got up bright and early! Went to breakfast and Luigis...fun to get up and spend the morning together. This is my local coffee place, i go every morning. Yummy coffee and food.




The guys were suppose to grab a bus and train today - have lunch in Kings Cross and cab it to my work in the afternoon...now.


More to come......
