Whoo hoo!
We're taking off for the airport at 7 tonight. Patrick wants to get there in plenty of time so he can bribe the Qantas air attendant for an upgrade with a box of chocolate. He calls it his "11.00 investment." I called about upgrading, and was told it would just be the difference in fare from economy ($900) to business class ($10,600). So I think chocolates are a great alternative :)
And since it's 5 and I have yet to pack, this entry will be pretty quick while Patrick is off hunting down Lonely Planet Australia books at Barnes and Noble...
We both are ditching luggage for two internal-frame packs from REI. They're awesome. Of course, the only one that fits me is in an ugly rust color, but atleast Patrick will find me easy among the crowds. It'll be easier tooling around in Sydney for the first week with packs instead of rolly luggage. And hopefully we'll get ripped into shape!
We've packed our new Sony W7 digital camera so we promise lots of cool pictures. As well as the digital camcorder.
So check back when you can and Patrick & I will have updated this on our latest adventures down under...
