We woke up to heavy rain and thought the day would be washed out. After a few hours the rain went away and the sun came out so we went to a farmers market and then went for a drive on the lookout for Amish. Paul had seen some on his drive the night before so we went down the same streets and saw signs that showed horse and buggy on then but did not see any. We found a shop that sold Amish candies and we got some as they had an address on then but we could not find there address on our sat nav we found places close to it but so tried around there. During our drive we went thought the Allegheny national forest and past the Allegheny River and Tionesta Lake ... read more

We looked on the sat nav the night before and it said 2h to falling water house but when we put it in today is said 2h of well we went any way and we decided to avoid tolls on the way there. We got there to find inside the house was closed on Wednesday so we could only do a grounds tour that was fine as we could walk around the house and look in the windows. We were glad we went it was fantastic. On the way back we decided to take the toll road to go a different way. ... read more

Got the flight from Canberra to Sydney. The flight was delayed so we had to rush to the next flight to LAX then when we got to LAX there was a long customs line so we had to rush again to our LAX to NYC flight we got there late but the made the flight wait for us and for a lot of other people who would have missed it the flight was less then ½ full when we got on it. This flight was billed as a direct flight with the same flight number so I guess they had to let us all get on it. I got to watch lots of movies on the fights but did not get much sleep. I still felt ok when I got to NYC after more than 24h ... read more
