What a start to our trip of a lifetime! Three Qantas jets and 3 days later, we arrive in the USA! No mean feat with 7 kids in tow (and one only 4 and a half months!). Worth the jet lag? Absolutely!
Group shot at Natalie and Drew's house in Sydney
Our trip started on August 3rd where we left Perth for Sydney. We stayed overnight at Natalie and Drew’s house. As things have turned out, this was definitely an indicator of what was to come in our new travels. Amazing hospitality and great company. Thanks Nat, Drew, Lachlan and Hunter for making our first leg of the journey a smooth one. The next part of our journey to Los Angeles was much longer, but we still had the LA to New York leg the following morning.
Nat nursing baby Akaisha
Took a week for our baby Akaisha to change her sleeping habits to a more acceptable level (didn’t really enjoy waking at 3:30am, then having to play with her for three hours while her body clock adjusted to the new time zones!) Took “us” a while too, but we are right in the swing of things now.
All sorted for a truly wonderful adventure.
