Mannens: Redux
Chana and Frank touched down yesterday afternoon at what was the easiest airport pickup in history. We had waited a total of three minutes when they cleared customs. The day was spent running errands and getting set for our trip to Perth.I am writing this blog from 35,000 feet, as we're almost at the end of our five-hour journey across the outback. Pretty easy trek in comparison to the early Aussie pioneers. We can see many farms as pastures from our vantage point here in row 33, looking forward to exploring them over the course of the week.
Our trip to Western Australia and Darwin, in the Northern Territory will put us in the distinction of having visited five of the six states here in Oz. We're going to work our way around the South Western portion of the continent this week before heading to the Crocville of tropical Darwin. Tonight will likely be spent getting our accommodation sorted out and bearings about us. I am looking forward to watching the sun set over the ocean for a change.
