I made it! For any of you who decide to come visit, the runway that you land on here is only about 10 feet long. That is an exaggeration, but by the time the plane is stopped you only have about 20 feet until you would hit the water. It's a very fast stop.
The plane ride was fine, but I was exhausted when I got off at 1pm. I didn't sleep the night before. My lovely husband was so excited to have me here, that he wanted e to see every place he had seen in the past week and a half, in about 3 hours. I finally bailed on him about 5pm and took a nap. We went out with a few guys from his work since it was Halloween. I will post a few photos. The guys in the photos are: Brian from Canada-tall leprechaun, Rha from Australia-chips cop with a bad wig, and Colin from England-Bam-Bam with face paint. Travis was a pirate. I didn't bring costume so I went as myself. We hit a few of their favorite spots and headed home early.
Life here is definitely different than the States. I don't know if I will ever get used to driving on the wrong side of the road. I practically have a heart attack everytime I'm in the car. There are also a lot of little "creatures"(as Trent would put it) here. When Travis told my he had a lot of new friends, I thought he was talking about humans! I will try to include a few pictures of our other new friends as well!
I relaxed yesterday. Mostly just unpacked and cleaned up. Today I am heading out on a bike ride to take some photos and find a few things we need. It feels good to be able to explore something new.
