From Sydney to Hobart was smooth and seemed like no time at all. Despite our oft-vowed position not to buy any duty free we did pick up a couple of bottles in Sydney. Got to tell you this, though. Remember how our bags were picked up by someone in Sydney? Well that must have made me extra cautious and believe it or not as we waited for our bags in Hobart I spotted one of them being walked out by someone. A quick dash across the road and I caught her so we didn't have a repeat of the wait at Sydney. We are going to have to put something on or cases which make them more unique so they don't get picked up by others when we travel. It wasn't too bad in Sydney and Hobart, but imagine if it had been at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris!
Home and we were immediately back into the swing of things. We arrived Wednesday afternoon, sorted the mail, did the laundry and had a meal out. The next day Virginia was back at work and I had a luncheon meeting. It's amazing how quickly it all falls away. Here we are only five days back and it almost seems as if we were never away.
On Wednesday, Virginia was saying "never again..." and had decided that she was not going to subject herself to another overseas trip. By Thursday morning she had the travel books out and was busy planning our trip for 2007.
And that's it. We are home, it was a wonderful trip, we are organising the photographs and planning for next year. Until then, when we will have a new blog, we hope you have enjoyed this and we send our love to you all.
Bruce and Virginia
