Our first sight of Australian soil was the sand of Moreton Island which forms the Eastern side of Brisbane's Moreton bay


Our dear friends welcome us home at Brisbane airport. (L to R: Cheryl, Robyn, Michael, Ethan and Lyneece)

24 April 2006

Today was our first day back at work after four months of wonderful experiences and something new to see every day. What a change to be back to the old routine again although I must say that it is enjoyable to return to the simple pleasures of life such as cooking your own meals and sleeping in your own bed. Our good friends were there at the airport to welcome us home and Robyn even had a little sign in Spanish for Ethan asking if we missed him (which we did of course).

All the dire warnings we were given about South America turned out to be unfounded as we did not have any nasty incidents in four months of travel. And what a special feeling to now have a second family in Cusco. Thanks Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina, it was great!
