G'day from Australia!

Well, it took FOREVER, but we've made it safely to Perth...just in time for the worst rain storm in 10 years. :) Today was much drier, so we got out and had a bit of a shop at a local market, followed by a nice drive along the coast. Last night we had dinner with Court's brother and his partner, and tonight we're watching the Dockers and having dinner with friends. It's nice to be people of leisure!

Our flight from HNL ended up getting into Sydney 2.5 hours late - 10.5 hours on a Jetstar flight is crap, by the way - but there was still enough time to meet up with friends before our flight on to Western Australia. Mecha met us at the airport and took us for a quick spin past the opera house, Harbour Bridge and Darling Harbour - Court had never been (if you can believe it). I think I've finally convinced him that Sydney is a worthy place to consider for the future - it's certainly one of my favourite cities in the world.

No Internet at Court's mum's house, so our updates will be a little scattered for the next few weeks. Hope everyone out there is doing well - we are still a little tired, but happy to have officially started our trip! xo
