Days 6, 7 and a huge apology

---

We're grouping days 6 & 7 together as it really was one long, uncomfortable day.

We're in Sydney!!

We stayed in the T5 Sofitel at LHR on Sunday night (so lovely) and took off Monday morning for Oz, arriving last night on Shane's birthday (23 hour flight). It was really not a fun birthday for him as we were stuck on a plane for most of it, so we're going to be celebrating today (Wednesday).

We're really sorry for basically lying to all our family, friends and workmates for the last couple of months. It's been really tough! Our "UK Driving Tour" portion of our trip was indeed made up. And why did we do this? So Kramer, Shane and I could watch Maja have a heart attack. Quite sadistic, we know, but it was totally worth it! We arrived at about 19:45 last night and she was totally blown away! Way too much fun.

So we've got 6 weeks of Australian heaven, hanging with Maja and Steve, and of course, lots of travelling! And somewhere to unpack our bags and do laundry...it's the simple things that matter sometimes. :o)

No pictures included in this blog as you do not want to see what we looked liked after that awful (but worth it) plane ride.

Sorry again for our major fib!
